What We Carried Home is a tender, introspective novel about grief, identity, and the quiet courage it takes to begin again.
When Leah returns to her hometown after her father's death, she's forced to confront the ghosts of a life she walked away from-the church that raised her, the best friend who left without warning, and the version of herself she buried to survive. But in a grief support group full of strangers, she meets Maya: a messy, magnetic baker with a soft voice and sharp wit.
As Leah rebuilds her life one hard truth and small joy at a time, she finds unexpected comfort in cinnamon-sugar mornings, shared silence, and the kind of love that doesn't ask her to be anyone but herself. But healing isn't a straight line-and when the past resurfaces, Leah must decide what she's willing to carry, and what it's finally time to set down.
For readers of Casey McQuiston, Chloe Liese, and Ashley Herring Blake, What We Carried Home is a quietly powerful story about queer love, chosen family, and finding home in unexpected places.
