After Tova Sullivan’s husband died, she began working the night shift at the Sowell Bay Aquarium, mopping floors and tidying up. Keeping busy has always helped her cope, which she’s been doing since her eighteen-year-old son, Erik, mysteriously vanished on a boat in Puget Sound over thirty years ago. Tova becomes acquainted with curmudgeonly Marcellus, a giant Pacific octopus living at the aquarium. Marcellus knows more than anyone can imagine but wouldn’t dream of lifting one of his eight arms for his human captors—until he forms a remarkable friendship with Tova.

Publisher's summary
Finalist for the L.A. Times Book Prize for First Fiction
One of NPR's "Favorite Books of 2019"!
A Skimm Reads Pick
A Belletrist Book Club Pick
"This novel reads like a miracle." (NPR)
Consumed by the longing for a different life, a teenager flees her family and carefully slips into another - replacing a girl whose own sudden disappearance still haunts the town.
Fourteen-year-old Cindy and her two older brothers live in rural Pennsylvania, in a house with occasional electricity, two fierce dogs, one book, and a mother who comes and goes for months at a time. Deprived of adult supervision, the siblings rely on one another for nourishment of all kinds. As Cindy's brothers take on new responsibilities for her care, the shadow of danger looms larger and the status quo no longer seems tolerable.
So when a glamorous teen from a more affluent, cultured home goes missing, Cindy escapes her own family's poverty and slips into the missing teen's life. As Jude Vanderjohn, Cindy is suddenly surrounded by books and art, by new foods and traditions, and most important, by a startling sense of possibility. In her borrowed life she also finds herself accepting the confused love of a mother who is constitutionally incapable of grasping what has happened to her real daughter. As Cindy experiences overwhelming maternal love for the first time, she must reckon with her own deceits and, in the process, learn what it means to be a daughter, a sister, and a neighbor.
Marilou Is Everywhere is a powerful, propulsive portrait of an overlooked girl who finds for the first time that her choices matter.
Critic reviews
"Marilou Is Everywhere is a novel of stunning emotional intelligence, and Cindy an unforgettable character, but it's Smith's writing that's the real star of the book.... The book is almost otherworldly in its beauty and power.... Fiction debuts this accomplished don't come along very often at all, and Marilou Is Everywhere proves that Smith is a writer of immense talent and rare imagination." (Michael Schaub, NPR)
"It’s a book brimming with longing, with heartbreak. It’s a coming-of-age by coming into somebody else.... And yet the novel is about more than just adolescent angst, a young girl’s longing to be somewhere else, someone else. Its universality lies in its generosity - its empathy for every character within it, regardless of his or her decisions, no matter how flawed. There is compassion for questionable actions rooted in longing. Reduced to those longings, are any of us so dissimilar?" (New York Times Book Review)
"Strange and gripping." (The New Yorker)

Drought has settled on the town of Peaches, California. The area of the Central Valley where fourteen-year-old Lacey May and her alcoholic mother live was once an agricultural paradise. Now it's an environmental disaster, a place of cracked earth and barren raisin farms. In their desperation, residents have turned to a cult leader named Pastor Vern for guidance. He promises, through secret "assignments," to bring the rain everybody is praying for.

Story
A few generations from now, the coastlines of the continent have been redrawn by floods and tides. Global powers have agreed to not produce any new plastics, and what is left has become valuable: Garbage is currency. In the region-wide junkyard that Appalachia has become, Coral is a “plucker", pulling plastic from the rivers and woods. She’s stuck in Trashlands, a dump named for the strip club at its edge, where the local women dance for an endless loop of strangers and the club's violent owner rules as unofficial mayor.

As the two girls turn the untamed landscape of their desolate small town into a kind of playground, Cat catalogues a litany of firsts - first drink, first cigarette, first kiss - while Marlena's habits harden and calcify.

Her characters are all unsteady on their feet in one way or another; they all yearn for connection and betterment, though each in very different ways, but they are often tripped up by their own baser impulses and existential insecurities.

Old School Literary Spirit Lives in This One
If you’re a fan of the 1946 Carson McCullers novel The Member of the Wedding with its season-drenched (mostly summer) descriptions, long interior monologues, conversations that support character and theme more than plot, and an aching child protagonist who is lost in her rural world, then this novel will please you. The plot does matter: I wanted to know what happens to the characters. The language is lovely as well. I look forward to the author’s next book!

Hard and beautiful
A poignant unraveling of trauma, addiction, loss and madness. Vivid, evocative language that makes you wish you were a better writer. A hard and beautiful love letter to the power of looking forward when the road traveled has nothing left to offer.

Quirky heartbreaking and sweet
It took me a little bit to get into this audio book but I ended up enjoying it. It’s a pretty quirky story but it’s really well written and all the characters are sort of heartbreaking and endearing in their own way. I would definitely read this author again.

Dreadful
Even if free, this isn’t worth listening to. Poorly written, uninteresting and also boring. I can’t think of anything positive to write.

Disappointing
Was a very slow moving book with no real climax. The whole plot was a little disappointing. The imagery felt over done and didn't move the story along or add to it but just drug it out.

Too much internal dialogue
Not a fan of this work. I found myself struggling mightily to finish it. It’s just too boring to listen to the internal thoughts of this young girl. I finally skipped to the last chapter to see what the ending was and called it a day.
