Everything Is like Something Else

Summary

From award-winning and bestselling author Suzy Krause comes an emotionally resonant work of speculative fiction that asks what happens when grief and hope start to bend the laws of reality—perfect for readers of The Husbands by Holly Gramazio and In Five Years by Rebecca Serle.

When a Saskatchewan farmer watches an entire neighboring farm vanish into thin air, his wife Harmony assumes he’s losing his mind—until she sees the empty field for herself. Hundreds of miles away and ten years later, a bookseller named Eris begins noticing small disappearances of her own: a calendar, a wall, then entire people. As their lives begin to overlap, Harmony and Eris come to realize they are connected not just by what they’ve lost, but by the things they can’t stop hoping for.

At once surreal and grounded, Everything Is like Something Else explores the absurdity of grief, the strange humor of being alive, and the ways longing reshapes the world around us. With biting wit and genuine warmth, Suzy Krause turns the end of the world into something intimate and funny, reminding us that even when the universe unravels, people remain both ridiculous and extraordinary.
