This is easily my favorite book I've reviewed through NetGalley and one I have every intention of buying my own copy of!!

Someday We'll Find It tells the story of Bliss, a teenage girl living with her aunt and uncle in rural Illinois, after her mother left her behind to pursue her modeling career. Bliss has it all figured out: she's dating the popular boy, River, and she works doubly hard not to let her aunt and uncle see her as a burden. But then she meets Blake, a boy who seems to see her like no one else does, and then, her Mama returns. Bliss is swept up in all the change, and has to figure out what's best for her: the life she worked so hard to prepare for herself, and the life she's always wanted.

I will say that this story probably won't be for everyone, but the reasons many people won't enjoy this book are exactly what made me love it. Bliss's voice is so strong; she really felt like a living breathing person, and so did every person around her. But the strength of her voice made the story start a bit slow, as you get a feel for what the world looks like through Bliss's eyes. (But once I got sucked in, there was no turning back!) She talks the way I would expect a teenager from a small town who had limited education growing up to talk, so if you can't handle intentionally bad grammar, you probably shouldn't pick up this book. Personally, I thought it made her feel even more real.

I would also consider Bliss to be an unreliable narrator (which again, not for everyone, but I love.) We are seeing the world and the people in it through her lens and have to make our own judgments. The people in Bliss's life, and even Bliss herself, are deeply flawed. Even the smallest side characters were lively and flawed and entirely real. I felt every range of emotions reading this book: happy, sad, and absolutely furious. If you have to like the characters in a book to enjoy the book, this one is not for you. But if you like seeing an honest look at family, at the ways people can be terrible to one another even with the best of intentions, or if you like characters that live in gray areas, and watch them figure things out anyway? Pick this one up ASAP

I felt like I was really on this journey with Bliss, and even when she made the wrong call, I was rooting for her every step of the way. (And did I mention this is a debut??? Can't wait to see what Jennifer Wilson comes up with next.)

Are we celebrating something? Ah, we do have a surprise.

if I had a nickel for every time marvel studios released a project about a fourth wall breaking superhero with their love interest appearing in yellow suit for the first time on screen and the final scene of that project is a family dinner where the love interest is wearing a gray plaid shirt i'd have two nickels which isn't a lot but it's weird it happened twice.

I have a love-hate relationship with the housemd intro bc on one hand I love the music, the coloring, the little shuffling sound right before RSL's name shows up on the screen...on the other hand why is everyone else represented as some anatomical part of the body but then Jennifer Morrison is a fucking river
