Words Composed of Sea and Sky by Erica George
4.0
Words Composed of Sea & Sky is a tale of two girls; one from the present and one from the past connected through poetry and Captain Benjamin Churchill (the man, the myth, the legend).
In the present, Michaela is trying to find the man underneath the legend, so that she can write a poem for a contest that will help pave the way for her acceptance into her dream college, She finds her inspiration in a forgotten diary of a poet form the past: Leta Townsend.
In the past, Leta is falling for the man she made up: Captain Benjamin Townsend. Leta went to school with him, and once he was presumed dead, decided to use his name to get her poems published. However, he returns and Leta finds herself confused at the man she's starting to fall for: is it the man she created from words composed of sea and sky or the sea captain behind her poetry.
I loved how interconnected the author made Leta's past with Michaela's present and the role Pearce boys play in their lives. (Finn from the present and Elijah from the past stole the show)
All in all, this was a lovely tale of two girls finding their place through poetry and words composed of sea and sky, I am extremely thankful to NetGalley and the publisher for the eARC!
