$6 The Book of Someday by Dianne Dixon Livvi Gray, an author who poured her painful childhood into her debut novel, realizes that the road to recovery is much longer than she expected. Though the book has brought her some success, she’s still having trouble letting anyone get close. AnnaLee, a wife and mother living in Long Island, fails to understand how the man she married could have changed so completely, so quickly. Micah Lesser, a famous photographer, realizes that her present success has done nothing to erase the secrets of her past. Dixon’s The Book of Someday follows the parallel stories of three unique women, all struggling with the contrasts between the highs of career success or new love set against the lows of depression, illness, or regret. Dixon gives Livvi, AnnaLee, and Micah each her own unique voice, combining common elements in their pasts to weave a compelling, emotionally driven story. With a tone reminiscent of Jodi Picoult, Kristin Hannah, and Carol Cassella, Dixon pulls at the threads between regret and nostalgia, forgiveness and blame, denial and acceptance. Emotional without being overwrought, The Book of Someday is an enchanting story.
