About the book
Some books hit you right in the heart, making you laugh, cry, and reflect all at once. We All Want Impossible Things by Catherine Newman is one of those rare novels—a deeply moving and beautifully written story about love, loss, and the kind of friendship that stands the test of time.
It follows Ash and Edi, best friends since childhood, as they navigate the painful reality of saying goodbye. Set against the backdrop of a hospice, the novel is a raw yet tender reminder that even in the hardest moments, humor and love can still shine through. Newman’s writing is effortless, filled with warmth, wit, and a deep understanding of human connection.
