Resumen del Editor

From New York Times bestselling author Kristan Higgins comes a funny and surprising new novel about second chances—and why the lies we tell ourselves are the most dangerous.

Lillie Silva knew life as an empty nester would be hard after her only child left for college, but when her husband abruptly dumps her for another woman just as her son leaves, her world comes crashing down. Besides the fact that this announcement is a complete surprise (to say the least), what shocks Lillie most is that she isn't...heartbroken. She's furious.

Lillie has loved her life on Cape Cod, but as a mother, wife and nurse-midwife, she's used to caring for other people...not taking care of herself. Now, alone for the first time in her life, she finds herself going a little rogue. Is it over the top to crash her ex-husband's wedding, dressed like the angel of death? Sure! Should she release a skunk into his perfect new home? Probably not! But it beats staying home and moping.

She finds an unexpected ally in her glamorous sister, with whom she's had a tense relationship all these years. And an unexpected babysitter in of all people Ben Hallowell, the driver in a car accident that nearly killed Lillie 20 years ago. And then there's Ophelia, her ex-husband's oddly lost niece, who could really use a friend.

It's the end of Lillie's life as she knew it. But sometimes the perfect next chapter surprises you...out of the clear blue sky.

Could stand a few trigger warnings

Solid 4, maybe 4.5 for the story, but good Lord have mercy!!... The 2 most cringy narrators ever!! Review after review had stated how much people absolutely loved the narrators, but I was literally astonished at how uncomfortable their voices were! A for effort on their part, but I'd definitely recommend listening to the sample clip & know that there is a 2nd reader that gets even more awkward.
Anyway, lots of heartwarming laughs & full of relatable life moments. There may be people, though, who could benefit from a trigger warning (and perhaps they are there?) re: loss of pregnancy/newborn, date rape, car accidents, particularly drowning in a car, as the author does a superb job of making you feel like you're living experiences through the characters.

"Out of the Clear Blue Sky" by Kristan Higgins

This was a GREAT book! So very sad and makes you want to jump into the pages and beat the crap out of some of the characters and also put your arm around others to give comfort and support. But let me tell you something else: I never laughed so hard reading chapter 21 (I think that's the right one). I could just see it all playing out and I could smell it, too. I played it over and over just to laugh again!! Thanks for this book and I hope to see it on the big screen soon!

Pleasantly Surprised!

I have listen to over 50 books from many different authors, but this was my first from Kristen Higgins. It was one of my favorite stories. I loved the characters. The story was smart, real, and interesting with humor and tears. The author has an amazing way of Describing her surroundings so that you can visualize it in your mind.
The characters are real and relatable. I would highly recommend this book

Narration an issue

The story was predictable but intriguing enough. However, I debated several times about returning the book based on the narrator’s “whiney” presentation. Too much.

Wow. What an insightful tale

As a divorced woman, I can say it was difficult to hear the truth that was this story. I often wondered why o kept a listened to the tale of the pro vs. anti character. Both were well developed. Both had a true to life story. I found myself in tears and laughing. For anyone wondering what it’s like to divorce and come out on the other side, listen to this well told story. Great read that I didn’t think I’d like.

Didn’t want it to end!

First, Xe Sands is my all time favorite narrator. Paired with a great story with realistic characters and several subplots, this was an exceptionally fun and interesting read.
I can’t wait for another book like this from Kristan Higgins. Hopefully Xe will narrate the next one too!
