“The best books are those that force us into another’s shoes, into their joys and sorrows, their loves and their losses. Kelley McNeil’s A Day Like This is one of those books. A thoughtful tale rich in both question and possibility, plumbing the mysteries of diverging paths, roads not taken, and the journey toward self-acceptance. This beautiful debut is guaranteed to echo long after the last page is turned.”

“When we fantasize about different paths we might have taken, we usually think about how our lives would be better—but how much would we have lost to arrive there?

This book is bursting with heartache and love, and with tremendous empathy for its genuine and likeable characters—including a beloved house.
