"A masterfully woven exposition on love and loss, of the undoing of us, of what it takes to heal. Nwabineli is magic with words, and manages to be at turns bitingly funny and heart-breakingly gutting. A book that acknowledges despair whilst encouraging hope."--Bolu Babalola, internationally bestselling author of Honey and Spice "If you are someone who gravitates toward emotional gut punch reads, allow me to introduce you to this spectacular debut."--BuzzFeed, 35 New Books You Won't Be Able To Put Down "Eve would probably sympathise with Meghan Markle when it comes to meeting frosty English in-laws. Following in the footsteps of novelists such as Candice Carty-Williams and Natasha Brown, Nwabineli exposes everyday racism while never feeling preachy. I was reeled in by her chatty voice and stayed for the tender, touching depiction of grief and family."--The Sunday Times "Incisive and witty, this deeply moving debut about the many faces of grief took me on an oscillating journey of emotions.


I couldn't put it down. Each richly developed character leaps off the page with vivid dimension through Onyi's razor-sharp voice. Fresh and original contemporary fiction from the Diaspora I've long yearned for."--Lolá Ákínmádé Åkerström, internationally bestselling author of In Every Mirror She's Black "One of the most powerful novels about grief I've read. It is simultaneously moving, witty and restorative."--Daily Mail "A heartbreaking exploration of grief that illustrates the power of relationships with those we love."--ESSENCE "Someday, Maybe is an earnest study on grief that forces you to examine it and not look away."--Associated Press "Nwabineli's exceptional debut is a heartfelt and moving portrayal of grief and recovery in all its messiness.


This is an excellent choice for book clubs and for readers who enjoy thought-provoking, deeply emotional fiction."-- *Starred Review* Booklist "Reflective and heartrending, Someday, Maybe is also surprisingly witty and compellingly relatable. A powerfully realized debut."--Ms. Magazine "A book about suicide may not sound heartwarming, but this one about a woman struggling to go on after losing her husband strikes the perfect balance between gut-wrenchingly sad and surprisingly funny. It's a great rainy-day read about the love that rallies around us in tragic times--and a reminder that light can come from the most unexpected sources."--Good Housekeeping "It's hard to believe that this outstanding novel is a debut. Poignant and heartfelt.


A beautifully drawn story that shows us how to help those who are grieving."--Prima, Book of the Month.
