Beaufort, United States - September 6, 2023 /PressCable/ —

Following its successful launch in July, 'The Summer Of Songbirds', the latest release from renowned author of the Peachtree Bluff series Kristy Woodson Harvey, has received new accolades. Despite its very recent publication, the novel was selected by Good Morning America as their Buzz Pick Of The Week, and as a result was displayed prominently on a billboard in Times Square.

This recent announcement adds another in a long list of awards granted to Harvey for her work in the Southern Fiction genre and beyond. The book was previously featured on the New York Times bestsellers list for July, joining many of Harvey’s other novels to have that distinction.

Speaking on the decision, a Good Morning America representative stated, “Three long-term friends in a small Southern town guide each other through romantic troubles while contemplating the future of the beloved camp where they spent their childhood summers together. Their life-long friendships will be shaken - but not broken, we hope. It is the perfect summer read.”

As this blurb details, the new novel follows the exploits of June Moore, owner of a North Carolina summer camp, along with three women who spent time at the camp as children. As the future of the camp is called into question, the trio must put aside their recent differences to save the foundation of their bond.

The novel is Harvey’s tenth major publication, and follows the acclaimed title 'The Wedding Veil'. 'The Summer Of Songbirds', however, sets itself apart from the author’s other recent releases given the direct inspiration taken from Harvey’s own childhood which she drew upon to craft this new narrative.

While Harvey’s national book tour is currently on pause following the novel’s release, signed copies of 'The Summer Of Songbirds', as well as select other titles, may be available on her online store. A calendar of future appearances will also be available there pending the announcement of new tour dates.

Kristy Woodson Harvey is a North Carolina native, whose works in the Southern fiction genre have seen her compared to the likes of Anne Tyler and Mary Kay Andrews. Her works are available for purchase on her website or from most major literary retailers.

Madi Mojdeh defies fatigue to strike silver, bronze as La Salle Green Hills nears NCAA back-to-back titles

MANILA, Philippines — La Salle Green Hills (LSGH) standout Behrouz Mohammad ‘Madi’ Mojdeh added two more medals to his tally in the NCAA Season 102 swimming competitions at the Rizal Memorial Sports Complex in Manila. The 15-year-old standout from the Behrouz Elite Swimming Team (BEST) captured one silver and one bronze, bringing his total collection to one gold, three silvers, and two bronze medals. The reigning NCAA Rookie of the Year claimed the silver in the 200m butterfly with a time of two minutes and 10.31 seconds. The gold medal remained within LSGH as teammate Kristian Yugo Cabana secured the top spot by clocking 2:09.34. “I was really happy to finally break the 2:10 barrier in the 200 Fly. Unfortunately, I was only 0.09 seconds away from breaking the NCAA record, but I'm still very happy with my new personal best and another gold medal in butterfly,” Cabana said. In fact, LSGH swept the event as Gilbert Gonzalvo secured the bronze with a time of 2:12.48. Mojdeh added a bronze in a grueling 400m Individual Medley, clocking 4:45.91—close behind silver medalist Ashton Jose of Letran, who finished with 4:55.25. “Swimming the 200 Fly and 400 IM back-to-back, twice in one day, was really exhausting, especially since I barely had time to recover. But I didn't want to hold back in one event just to save energy for the other. Because I felt like, if I was going to do that, then what was all my hard work in training for?” Mojdeh shared. After being disqualified in the 400m IM last year, Mojdeh expressed joy at bouncing back with a new personal best. “Last year, I got disqualified in the 400 IM, which was really disappointing, but I had to move on quickly because I still had my 200 Fly. This year, I'm really happy that I got new PBs in both events and finished on the podium,” said Mojdeh. “Honestly, on the last lap, I felt like I was about to die already, but I just kept pushing because I didn't want all those hours of training to go to waste,” Mojdeh added. Mojdeh was thrilled that every event he entered this edition resulted in new personal best times. “Of course, I still want to win gold, but I'm happy with my progress. I know I still have a lot to improve, and I'll just keep trusting my training and my coaches. At least I know I gave everything I had, and that's what matters to me,” Mojdeh said. At the close of the third day of competition, the LSGH tankers are within striking distance of securing back-to-back titles in the boys’ division after accumulating a total of 605 points. San Beda University sits in a distant second place with 331.50 points, while Letran is third with 235.50 points. TMT
