Cover Crush: Out of the Blue by Sophie Cameron

Out of the Blue by Sophie Cameron has just a striking cover. I was immediately drawn to the book when I saw it on a goodreads list for 2018 releases. I love the minimal colors and the imagery. We see the falling angel, after we notice the striking feather. It’s really eye-catching. Looking forward to this angel story set in Scotland and I hear has LGBT themes from an own voices author. So you know I will be giving this one a chance! Out of the Blue is releasing on May 15th, so be sure to add it to your TBR now!

Sometimes, I imagine alternate endings to the story: last-minute miracles, touches of magic. I picture how things might have gone, if I wasn’t there. If I’d left just a few minutes later. If I hadn’t been alone. It doesn’t make any difference. One way or another, the crash always comes.

Ten days after Jaya Mackenzie’s mum dies, angels start falling from the sky. Smashing down to earth at extraordinary speeds, wings bent, faces contorted, not a single one has survived.

Hysteria mounting with every Being that drops, Jaya’s father uproots the family to Edinburgh intent on catching one alive. But Jaya can’t stand this obsession and, struggling to make sense of her mother’s sudden death and her own role on that fateful day, she’s determined to stay out of it.

When her best friend disappears and her father’s mania spirals, things hit rock bottom and it’s at that moment something extraordinary happens: An angel lands right at Jaya’s feet, and it’s alive. Finally she is forced to acknowledge just how significant these celestial beings are.

Set against the backdrop of the frenzied Edinburgh festival, OUT OF THE BLUE tackles questions of grief and guilt and fear over who we really are. But it’s also about love and acceptance and finding your place in this world as angels drop out of another.
