When a Saskatchewan farmer claims he has seen an entire farmyard vanish into thin air, his wife Harmony assumes he’s losing his mind—until she sees the empty field for herself. She soon finds herself on a strangely magical journey that will push the limits of what she knows about grief, love, and reality, perfect for readers of Rebecca Serle and Matt Haig.

Harmony’s mother has died, and her grief is complicated. How do you properly say goodbye to a parent when their effect on your life was overwhelmingly negative? And in a classic case of terrible timing, her husband has just informed her that the neighbour’s farm—the whole farm, trees and all—is gone, leaving Harmony to worry that he’s lost his grip on reality.

In a small city 416 kilometers away, a young bookstore owner named Eris is questioning her own sanity. Items are disappearing around her as well: a calendar. A whole shelf of books. The front door.

As increasingly important things in both women’s lives continue to disappear without warning—and even more disastrously, reappear in unexpected places—they will both need to search for what, and who, they’ve lost. As their paths converge and their strange connection comes to light, they will have to decide what they need, and what they can let go of.

Clever, moving, and magical, Everything Is Like Something Else is a rumination on grief, mothers and daughters, and new and old love, from award-winning writer Suzy Krause.
