Stephanie Austin had a complicated father and a complicated relationship with him. After a short battle with lung cancer, his death forced her to reckon with his always-threatened and now permanent absence from her life. As she struggled to find her footing, the health of her maternal grandmother, with whom she had always been close, began to fail. Austin found herself facing another looming grief, intensified by the bewildering early months of the pandemic. In unflinching, often wry prose that grapples with death and regret, loss and grief, Something I Might Say lets us sit at the bedside in the sickroom with Stephanie Austin, and reminds us that the histories of our loves-the kindnesses and the disappointments too-sit with us in that final room. "Austin constructs my favorite kind of memoir: one without any easy answers, one that celebrates the confusing privilege of being alive. This kinetic book gets it exactly right about what it's like to love our people in a warts-and-all way."- Joshua Mohr, author of MODEL CITIZEN
