Beaufort, United States - December 8, 2023 /PressCable/ —

“The Summer Of Songbirds”, a tender and romantic work of nostalgic southern fiction, is Harvey’s latest release following the success of her previous release, “The Wedding Veil”. Critics are touting this release as another in a line of consistently high-quality releases from Harvey, whose works have become a staple in book clubs and reading lists alike.

The novel follows a story inspired by Harvey’s own upbringing. In the story, June Moore, head of a well-loved North Carolina summer camp, struggles to save all she has worked for as personal and financial troubles threaten her livelihood. Along the way, she will team up with a group of former campers, now grown and facing challenges of their own, as they fight to preserve the camp that formed the foundation of their friendship.

The story is lovingly rendered in Harvey’s signature style, reminiscent of Southern classics in the tradition of Mary Chesnut, Kate Chopin, Alice Walker, and others. The novel has been lauded as among Harvey’s most emotionally complex, the central theme being one of fraught friendship, and the difficulties that growing apart can bring.

The mid-July release of this novel makes it the ideal choice for poolside reading, and it has already been adopted by women’s fiction book clubs across the country.

This release marks the end of Harvey’s book tour, though signed copies are still available for purchase for a limited time on her website.

One satisfied reader left the following review, “The Summer of Songbirds is a beautiful story about unconditional love. Without completely escaping the realities of adulthood, Harvey perfectly captures the nostalgia of childhood summers, the beginnings of lifelong friendships, and the enduring memories of first loves that never completely fade.”

Kristy Woodson Harvey, outside of her pursuits as a novelist, is also a renowned blogger and podcast host, also serving on the University Of North Carolina’s literary board. Her seminal “Peachtree Bluff” series is currently in development for a screen adaptation produced by NBC; Harvey will be credited as a co-writer for that project.

Brennan dominates PGA Tour in Japan   

YOKOHAMA, Japan — Michael Brennan won the Baycurrent Classic on Sunday for his second victory of the season and third on the PGA Tour in the last calendar year, closing with six straight pars for a 3-under 68 and a one-stroke victory over Jacob Bridgeman and Keith Mitchell. Brennan, who shared the 54-hole lead with Bridgeman and Zach Bauchou, rebounded from a bogey on the 10th hole with birdies on the next two holes before his run of pars at hilly Yokohama Country Club. One of those pars was a long bunker shot to a foot on the 16th. He finished at 16-under 268. Brennan won the Bank of Utah Championship on Oct. 26, 2025, on a sponsor exemption. The 24-year-old from Wake Forest also won the Wyndham Championship two months ago. This was only his 33rd start on tour. Bridgeman missed a 5-foot birdie putt on the 17th and closed with a 69. Mitchell played the final 10 holes in 2 over for a 68. Defending champion Xander Schauffele was one shot behind playing the 18th, drove into the trees and made double bogey for a 67 to tie for fourth. European tour MADRID — Grant Forrest got up-and-down for birdie on the reachable par-4 18th for a 2-under 70 and a one-shot victory in the Spanish Open on Sunday, earning the 33-year-old from Scotland his first trip to Augusta National for the Masters. Forrest was tied with late-charging Victor Perez of France going to the 322-yard closing hole. Both drove into rough just beyond the green, their golf balls separated by the length of their shoes. Perez chipped to 10 feet and missed. Forest’s chip ran out to just over 3 feet for the winning putt. The victory also gets Forrest into the British Open, which he has played twice previously. The closest he came to the Masters was in 2015 when he was runner-up in the British Amateur. Forrest, who finished at 14-under 270, capped off a tense finish that featured five players with a chance in the final hour. Eugenio Chacarra and Jacob Skov Olesen fell back with bogeys on the 17th. Chacarra (66) tied for second, moving him to No. 2 in the Race to Dubai. PGA Tour Champions PALM COAST, Florida — Vaughn Taylor closed with a 4-under 68 and made a 10-foot birdie putt on the second playoff hole Sunday to defeat Alex Cejka in the Constellation Furyk & Friends, his first PGA Tour Champions title and his first victory anywhere in more than 10 years.

Unbeaten 49ers edge Seahawks

LONDON — San Francisco scored three touchdowns off Seattle turnovers and the unbeaten 49ers edged the reigning Super Bowl champions, 32-29, on Sunday (Monday in Manila) while Minnesota improved to 5-0 as well. Eddy Pineiro’s 44-yard field goal with 1:56 remaining gave the 49ers the final margin and San Francisco’s defense forced a turnover on downs with 47 seconds remaining to beat their C West division rival. Thirty-eight points — 21 by the Niners — scored off seven turnovers, four by Seattle, were the most in an L game since 2017. Mike Evans caught seven passes for 113 yards, including a two-yard touchdown toss from Brock Purdy after a Renardo Green interception and a crucial two-point conversion. “Toughness and heart,” Evans said. “We’ve got a locker room full of those guys. We knew it was going to be a dogfight. They’re a great team. We showed we’re a great team as well.” Fred Warner knocked lose a fumble by Emanuel Wilson that Malik Mustapha recovered one play before Christian McCaffrey ran for a San Francisco touchdown. Gracen Halton recovered a George Holani fumble in the end zone to give the 49ers a 21-13 halftime lead. Seattle’s Nehemiah Pritchett picked off Purdy to set up Sam Darnold’s 16-yard touchdown pass to Jaxson Smith-Njigba to give Seattle a 23-21 lead. Purdy flipped a seven-yard touchdown pass to Brandin Cooks and the conversion to Evans for a 29-26 49ers’ lead, only for Jason Myers to equalize from 40 yards on his fifth field goal, setting up the final drama.
