A woman follows the stars across the world to finally come home to herself.
A woman follows an astrocartography map across cities that awaken forgotten parts of herself in this lyrical, emotionally immersive novel about healing, identity, and becoming.
After months of sleepless nights and emotional numbness, Nora Bellamy discovers astrocartography—a map that claims the stars can reveal where you truly belong. Desperate for something to change, she buys a one-way ticket and begins crossing cities that awaken forgotten parts of herself.
In Savannah, she learns how to be seen.
In Vermont, she confronts the girl she abandoned.
In Montreal, she discovers softness, art, and connection.
But the farther Nora travels, the harder it becomes to ignore the truth waiting beneath every new beginning:
You can’t outrun yourself. You can only return.
Everywhere I Was Meant to Be is a lyrical, emotionally immersive novel about reinvention, identity, creativity, and the terrifying beauty of finally taking up space in your own life.
Perfect for readers who love atmospheric women’s fiction, healing journeys, poetic prose, and emotionally transformative stories.
