March 14 - April 8, 2022 Virtual Book Tour

THE YELLOW HONEYSUCKLE IS THE SWEETEST is a salute by the author to a lifetime of outdoor experiences in eastern North Carolina and beyond. It encompasses 14 true short stories about family, friendships, and the emotions involved in hunting, fishing, and other outdoor-related topics. It is not a how-to book, nor just a compilation of hunting and fishing stories; it describes how simple family and personal interactions, with the outdoor sports and unmatched natural beauty as a backdrop, can result in treasured memories like perhaps no other pursuits.

If you hunt and fish, or grew up enjoying histories of family traditions and friendships revolving around the outdoors - whether it be in North Carolina, or elsewhere - THE YELLOW HONEYSUCKLE IS THE SWEETEST is for you.

My Thoughts:


Growing up in and continuing to live in a rural area, I am all too familiar with hunting, fishing, and enjoying the outdoors. As a child, I spent a lot of time exploring the woods, mushroom hunting, and fishing with my family. Those are some of my favorite memories! When I had my own boys, my oldest immediately showed an interest in fishing and hunting.


This is an enjoyable read that does primarily focus on hunting, fishing, and nature, but you also get a glimpse at what these activities mean to Fentress (and others who enjoy these activities, too!). You'll read about the love between family and friends, as well as the importance of tradition.


The Yellow Honeysuckle is the Sweetest is an enjoyable read that will leave you with a warm, full heart. Even if you're not a hunter, fisher, or nature-lover, you can appreciate the time-honored traditions and love shared throughout the book. This book would make a great gift for the hunter/fisher in your life!


I received a complimentary copy for reviewing purposes. All opinions are my own.
