About this listen
The number one New York Times best-selling author returns to the characters in Firefly Lane in her next blockbuster novel, Fly Away. Once, a long time ago, I walked down a night-darkened road called Firefly Lane, all alone, on the worst night of my life, and I found a kindred spirit. That was our beginning. More than 30 years ago. TullyandKate. You and me against the world. Best friends forever.
But stories end, don't they? You lose the people you love and you have to find a way to go on...Tully Hart has always been larger than life, a woman fueled by big dreams and driven by memories of a painful past. She thinks she can overcome anything until her best friend, Kate Ryan, dies. Tully tries to fulfill her deathbed promise to Kate - to be there for Kate's children - but Tully knows nothing about family or motherhood or taking care of people. Sixteen-year-old Marah Ryan is devastated by her mother's death. Her father, Johnny, strives to hold the family together, but even with his best efforts, Marah becomes unreachable in her grief. Nothing and no one seems to matter to her...until she falls in love with a young man who makes her smile again and leads her into his dangerous, shadowy world.
Dorothy Hart - the woman who once called herself Cloud - is at the center of Tully's tragic past. She repeatedly abandoned her daughter, Tully, as a child, but now she comes back, drawn to her daughter's side at a time when Tully is most alone. At long last, Dorothy must face her darkest fear: Only by revealing the ugly secrets of her past can she hope to become the mother her daughter needs.
A single, tragic choice and a middle-of-the-night phone call will bring these women together and set them on a poignant, powerful journey of redemption. Each has lost her way, and they will need each one another - and maybe a miracle - to transform their lives.
An emotionally complex, heart-wrenching novel about love, motherhood, loss, and new beginnings, Fly Away reminds us that where there is life, there is hope, and where there is love, there is forgiveness.
Told with her trademark powerful storytelling and illuminating prose, Kristin Hannah reveals why she is one of the most beloved writers of our day. Includes a Reading Group Guide Read by Kristin Hannah

Exquisitely crafted sequel to Firefly Lane
My fourth book in a row, of Kristin Hannah and I literally couldn't stop listening. The escape is and was a welcome distraction from the current chaos in the world 2020/21 C19. Hold on tight to your loved ones, tell them often you love them, you're proud of them, don't let go. These are feelings deeply messaged into the continuing story of Tuli and Kate, Margie and Dorothy, Mara and Johnny. I absolutely loved this story. Love and warmest wishes to future readers.

A good story, but too long.
This was a great story, great narration.
I felt that it was too long, could have been told in half the time.

All the feels
These two books really affected me. The era, growing up with a best friend. Parents. Addictions. The loss and grief. I have never been on such an emotional roller coaster in a book before.

Sequel to Firefly Lane
I didn't realize this was a sequel to Firefly Lane. Alone I felt was a great book, but had way more context having read the first book previously. Kristen Hannah did a great job reflecting so that the reader didn't have to know the first book to understand this one. It was a very well written story and was the full circle ending I had hoped for.

A lot of the same thing over and over
I have read other books by Kristen Hannah and enjoyed them, however this one as a follow up to Firefly Lane was too much of the same thing (in my opinion). I’m also finding Kristen focuses on unhappy endings. For me, reading this at this time with all the unhappy things going on around us as well as Covid Ive had enough of sadness. I’m looking for more upbeat and happy times. I wont rush to read another of her books for a long time.

Narrator lost my attention
I couldn't get into this book due to the narrator. The southern accent was too much. Had to shut it off

Too long
If melodrama bordering on tedium is your thing then this is the book for you. If you’ve read Firefly Lane which was decent, this is just more and more and more of the same. I skipped over pages and pages just to reach the end. Finally.
