Meet the Sky Blink McCall Hoyle Books

As a resident of eastern North Carolina, my town and surrounding areas were recently impacted by Hurricane Florence. During the hurricane, I wondered if there were any YA books about surviving this type of natural disaster. A few weeks later, I came across Meet the Sky on Amazon, and realized it was already on my to-read list on Goodreads. I was able to get the Kindle version during a sale one weekend, and I'm SUPER excited to say that Meet the Sky totally lived up to--and surpassed--my expectations.

What I Loved:
Gorgeous Cover: The beautiful cover and the Blink YA logo were all it took to get this sweet story on my to-read list. But, as much as I adore these aspects, there's so much more to love about the novel.

Spot-On Hurricane Descriptions: It's one thing to read about hurricanes, but a completely different thing to witness one in action and see the aftermath in person. I'm happy to say that the author knew exactly what she was talking about and flawlessly described what it's like to experience a hurricane. I do wish we had received more descriptions on the aftermath (specifically how Sophie and Finn's houses held up) but other than that, it was exceptional.

The Characters: Sophie was a bit of your typical Sarah Dessen-esque, no-nonsense, studious, protector-of-the-family type girl, but her character arc through the storm helped to bring out her unique qualities. Finn stressed me out to no end, but I ended up loving that goober! The two together have amazing chemistry and I highly enjoyed seeing them learn how to survive the hurricane together.

The Wild Horse Element: Highlighting Sophie's connection to the wild horses in the Outer Banks brought forth even more uniqueness to the novel. Not only do Sophie and Finn have to survive the storm, but they feel obligated to help a horse out as well. This aspect was interesting to read about, because I've always wondered what happens to the horses when a "storm of the century" like Hurricane Harry in the book, or our recent Hurricane Florence, strikes the area.

Meet the Sky was the exact book I was craving to satisfy my want of a life-like hurricane read. There was nothing major about the novel that I disliked, and the continually changing storm added numerous high-risk plot twists that kept me invested throughout. I can't wait to read more by this author!

Meet the Sky Blink McCall Hoyle Books Reviews

This book is so good. I read it in 1 day because I couldn’t put it down. A good read for young adults and adults alike.
Loved it! I stayed up late till the middle of the night to finish it the same day I got it!
Love, love, love this book! Storyline keeps you on the edge of your seat! Recommend for all ages!!
What a FANTASTIC novel!

Hoyle has created a wonderful piece of work here. Sophie is a honest character the reader truly comes to care for by the end of the book, and her story is beautifully crafted. Finn isn't so bad either!
Another amazing story from McCall Hoyle. Her stories are compelling, real, uplifting, and always leave you wanting more. Meet The Sky is no exception! Even though it is YA, I devoured it as quickly and eagerly as my middle school students.
I always love a good storm-- they make me feel a bit wild and also ready to snuggle and be safe inside. Meet the Sky had the same effect. What a gripping, emotional story! I felt like I was right there with Sophie and fell in love with Finn as I kept turning, turning, turning pages straight through until the end.
A very timely book, given the two hurricanes hitting the Southern U.S. in recent months. McCall does a very fine job of weaving the forces of nature with misunderstanding on Sophie's part and her difficulty in moving beyond the huge hurt following the accident that broke her family. These latter realities create tension and a wall between her and Finn that begin to erode as they struggle to find shelter before the storm peaks. Just as they start to connect again, Finn reveals something that scares Sophie enough so she backtracks big time. What that is and how they survive the twin hurricanes, one natural, one emotional, make for a very satisfying read.
