Thank you Zibby and LibroFM for review copies (the audiobook was a perfect way for me to finish listening to this book this morning!). I enjoyed Tady's previous book and this one is even stronger, an author to watch!

Bluebird Day by Megan Tady is one of those rare books that sneaks up on you, wrapping you in its warmth while hitting all the right emotional notes. Set in a snowed-in Swiss ski village, it delivers more than just a stunning backdrop; it’s a story about a mother and daughter—Claudine and Wylie—trying to mend a bond that life and ambition have strained. What hooked me wasn’t just the plot twists or the colorful characters stranded in the village but the raw, relatable honesty between the two leads. Tady nails the push-and-pull of their relationship, crafting moments that are tender, messy, and deeply human. It’s impossible not to see pieces of your own relationships in their journey, and by the end, I felt both moved and uplifted.

What makes this book so special is how personal it feels. Tady gives readers a front-row seat to Wylie and Claudine’s thoughts and fears, making their struggles with self-worth and connection achingly real. I found myself rooting for both women, sometimes switching allegiances from one to the other in a single chapter. The pacing is just right—there’s enough drama to keep the pages turning but not so much that it feels contrived. And the setting? It’s like a cozy winter retreat with emotional depth to match. This isn’t just a book about reconciliation; it’s about rediscovery, resilience, and finding beauty in the imperfections of relationships.
