The Someday Daughter (2024)
Ellen O'Clover
"Endlessly compassionate and gracefully written, The Someday Daughter is a story about the beautifully messy business of figuring out who you are - or who you're not, as the case may be. The novel is warm and heartfelt even as it addresses difficult, complex truths, and it's packed with memorable people and places (not to mention one very enchanting dog). I loved watching Audrey develop the courage to face - and maybe even enjoy - the unknown."
