ABOUT THE BOOK
For fans of Evie Woods’s The Lost Bookshop and Matt Haig’s The Midnight Library, Objects May Appear is a contemporary women’s fiction novel with a fantasy twist about a woman who unlocks the ability to fly—only to discover just how many perils accompany that superpower.
Quinn has spent a lifetime unwinding from a childhood that was both magnificent and traumatizing. As a child actor, she was showered with attention and luxury even as she battled a mother who coveted her success—and eventually stole all her money.
Now, Quinn lives a quiet, peaceful life that once seemed impossible for someone like her—suburban neighborhood, loving husband, beloved Labrador retriever, and prickly-yet-adoring cat. Until, one day, something else impossible happens: On a random Tuesday, Quinn’s feet slip off the floor, and she finds herself flying along the ceiling of her living room.
Quinn’s neighbor, Georgia, is perhaps the only woman Quinn’s ever known who’s been a true friend and not a frenemy. Still excavating her life from the rubble of a brutal divorce, Georgia is in a deeply introspective place—and beginning to suspect something odd is happening with Quinn.
As Quinn grapples with her newfound abilities, the cornerstones of her desperately-fought-for life are increasingly threatened. Standing on the precipice of life-changing expansion and staring at a chasm of uncertainty, Quinn must decide if the leap across is worth the risk. Because only by jumping will she find out what’s on the other side.
ABOUT THE AUTHOR
Khristin Wierman spent 20 years in marketing at Fortune 500 companies, building a career that was lucrative, ego-boosting, and a little bit soul-crushing. So she quit. And then had no idea what to do with her life. Writing novels ensued and she has since published Buck’s Pantry, This Time Could Be Different, and the upcoming Objects May Appear. Born and raised in a small East Texas town, Khristin came into this world a Dallas Cowboys fan and ardently believes “y’all” is a legitimate pronoun. She enjoys playing golf with her husband and stepson, poker, yoga, the Golden State Warriors, and the daily adventure of life with two precious cats. She lives in San Francisco, California.
