Why Should You Read It?

Kerry Fryar Freeman’s Sedona is a delightful journey into a town where magic and mystery intertwine with everyday life. Sedona, AZ, a well-known tourist destination, sets the stage for this captivating tale, drawing readers into its alluring vortexes, whispering pines, and healing springs. The town’s mystical reputation is richly explored, making it almost a character in its own right.

Cal Novak, the spirited editor from Atlanta, provides a relatable and engaging protagonist. Her quest for more—more time, adventure, and meaning—resonates deeply, especially as she navigates the contrasts between city life and the enchanting world of Sedona. Cal’s move to this intriguing town unfolds with a sense of discovery, as she peels back the layers of Sedona’s many secrets.

Freeman’s prose is immersive, painting vivid images of Sedona’s landscapes and the unique characters that inhabit the town. The novel is a mix of adventure and introspection, with a plot that keeps you curious about what lies behind every door and beneath every legend.

The only drawback is that at times the pacing slows, as the story delves into the minutiae of Cal’s new life. However, these moments also allow for a deeper connection with Cal and the world she’s come to embrace.

Overall, Sedona is a charming and thought-provoking read that captures the spirit of a town where reality and the supernatural blur. It’s perfect for anyone seeking a story that offers both escape and reflection.
