In this expansion of her 2017 commencement speech at her hometown Langley High, Lauren Graham reflects in her hilarious, relatable voice on growing up, pursuing your dreams, and living in the here and now. "Whatever path you choose, whatever career you decide to go after, the important thing," she writes, "is that you keep finding joy in what you're doing, especially when the joy isn't finding you." She reminds us to be curious and compassionate, no matter where life takes you.

The year 1996 was the one that changed everything for Maggie Dawes. Sent away at 16 to live with an aunt she barely knew in Ocracoke, a remote village on North Carolina’s Outer Banks, she could think only of the friends and family she left behind...until she met Bryce Trickett, one of the few teenagers on the island. Handsome, genuine, and newly admitted to West Point, Bryce showed her how much there was to love about the wind-swept beach town - and introduced her to photography, a passion that would define the rest of her life. By 2019, Maggie is a renowned travel photographer.

Minnie Cooper knows two things with certainty: that her New Year's birthday is unlucky, and that it's all because of Quinn Hamilton, a man she's never met. Their mothers gave birth to them at the same hospital just after midnight on New Year's Day, but Quinn was given the cash prize for being the first baby born in London in 1990 - and the name Minnie was meant to have, as well. With luck like that, it's no wonder each of her birthdays has been more of a disaster than the one before.

Publisher's Summary
From Lauren Graham, the beloved star of Gilmore Girls and Parenthood, comes a witty, charming, and hilariously relatable debut novel about a struggling young actress trying to get ahead - and keep it together - in New York City.
It’s January 1995, and Franny Banks has just six months left of the three-year deadline she set for herself when she came to New York, dreaming of Broadway and doing "important" work. But all she has to show for her efforts so far is a part in an ad for ugly Christmas sweaters, and a gig waiting tables at a comedy club. Her roommates - her best friend, Jane; and Dan, an aspiring sci-fi writer - are supportive, yet Franny knows a two-person fan club doesn’t exactly count as success. Everyone tells her she needs a backup plan, and though she can almost picture moving back home and settling down with her perfectly nice ex-boyfriend, she’s not ready to give up on her goal of having a career like her idols, Diane Keaton and Meryl Streep. Not just yet.
But while she dreams of filling their shoes, in the meantime, she’d happily settle for a speaking part in almost anything - and finding a hair product combination that works.
Everything is riding on the upcoming showcase for her acting class, where she’ll finally have a chance to perform for people who could actually hire her. And she can’t let herself be distracted by James Franklin, a notorious flirt and the most successful actor in her class, even though he’s suddenly started paying attention. Meanwhile, her bank account is rapidly dwindling, her father wants her to come home, and her agent doesn’t return her calls. But for some reason, she keeps believing that she just might get what she came for.
Someday, Someday, Maybe is a story about hopes and dreams, being young in a city, and wanting something deeply, madly, desperately. It’s about finding love, finding yourself, and perhaps most difficult of all in New York City, finding an acting job.
PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

More Please!
A long time fan of Lauren Graham, I was a little nervous that her writing wouldn't live up to my hopes... but the fear was unwarranted. Although there are some portions of the ending that were pretty easy to see coming, the road to them was very entertaining.
I feel sorry of folks reading this book in print - Lauren's voice is the only voice that should read these words. She is a serious actress who you know doesn't take herself too seriously.
I hope for more books, either continuing the story of Fannie, or introducing us to new characters. Be prepared while listening with your ear buds firmly in place, if you're in public you may embarrass yourself by laughing out loud.

A Fun read
Any additional comments?
I was doing one of my random selection of books to read when I bought this. I had no idea what to expect frankly, but this turned out to be quite a fun and light read. The plot and the story itself isn't that deep, but there are sever quite hilarious scenes. However, there w3re some times when I wasn't quite sure where one person finished speaking and the next began, though I think it's more due to the format of the book than the narrater. The narrator suits this read. She's funny and could capture the way the MC speaks and I thought her sound affects all adds to the listening experience.
Should you read this? Well, if you are looking for a book to have a laugh and are purely wanting for some entertainment, then yes. It's a fun book to relax with, but lack any hardcore plot twists and developments like in the authors I usually like reading.

Love the performance!
What did you love best about Someday, Someday, Maybe?
I love Lauren Graham's reading of her book. I'm not sure I would like this as much to read myself, but I love listening to it. She is an excellent performer and I am thoroughly enjoying the book--I only have a tiny bit left and I just downloaded it yesterday. Definitely recommend it!
Who was your favorite character and why?
Franny is my favorite character because you see her struggle, you see her insecurities, yet you see her strength too. I love that she can laugh at herself, because who of us doesn't do that, or at least need to do that? She's someone I would love to be friends with.

Didn't disappoint
What did you like best about this story?
I enjoyed the fact that the story takes place in the 1990s - there are so many quirky problems that having a smartphone clears up and I think it would have been a shame if the 'easy fix' of technology was present in this story.
What does Lauren Graham bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?
I don't think I would have caught everything I caught without Graham's narration. This is her story and she knows better than anyone what to emphasize.
Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?
Franny's interactions with her father were sweet, funny and moving.
Any additional comments?
I hope she continues with Franny's story. There's definitely more to be said.

Who doesn't love Lauren Graham?
I thoroughly enjoyed this book. Is it a perfect work of literary art? No, but nothing ever is, and it's hard not to be charmed by the author and her engaging style. It kept me entertained during my long LA commute, and I found myself listening to it outside of the car, because I couldn't wait to hear the rest of the story. My only complaint is that it went by too fast and left me wanting more. (Lauren, I hope you're writing a sequel - we need to see what comes next for Franny!)

How can you not love a book by Lauren Graham?
Loved this book.
My daughter and I are die hard Lauren Graham fans. We love her in every tv show, movie, or guest appearances. When I saw that she both wrote and read this book, I had to give it a try. It's a great story and the performance was awesome. I hated to see the book end.

So good!
Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?
I would recommend this book and already have given it away as a gift. I plan to give it out more! It's heartwarming, smart & funny all at once.
Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?
I laughed AND teared up at various parts of the book. Graham does an awesome voice-over, and has written lovable characters, realistic situations and fun, engaging dialogue.

Warm, funny take on the life of a struggling actor
Where does Someday, Someday, Maybe rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?
It's great – quite a bit shorter than most of the books I tend to read, but I was in the mood for something lighter and shorter, and it fit the bill perfectly.
Would you be willing to try another book from Lauren Graham? Why or why not?
I'd definitely listen to more stuff either by, or just read by, Lauren Graham again. She has a bone-dry delivery, matched by her writing, that allows both humour and pathos to come through.
What does Lauren Graham bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you had only read the book?
There's an inherent advantage to the author reading their own work anyway – you hear the dialogue in the voices, and with the cadences, that best deliver the humorous or the romantic lines without risk of misinterpretation.But Graham being a now-successful actress who would have been at the point of her career where Franny is in the mid-90s adds additional levels. Not only can we choose to believe that there is an element of autobiography in there (whether there is or is not), we know that, at the very least, the situations in which Franny finds herself are real. And that makes her more real to us as a result.
If you made a film of this book, what would be the tag line be?
She's given herself three years to make it as an actor. Maybe this time…
Any additional comments?
In print, there are visual depictions of the heroine Franny's Filofax diary, which break up the narrative at key points. It took me a while to discover that Audible places a PDF version of those pages in your library (they've since added a note to the book's description to this effect) – it's worth keeping them to hand so that you can read them at the appropriate points.

Loved it!
Beautifully written in simple words, easy to read/listen to. All I can say is that this is a very Lauren Graham book, it's funny, entertaining and positive from the beginning to the last line. The fact that's read by the author is a big plus, her happy voice brings the story to life and makes you feel like you're almost part of it.

excellent and entertaining
Absolutely loved this book, Lauren Graham does a fantastic job of keeping you fully engaged and making it so easy to picture everything. I could feel all of the emotions Franny felt and really loved the 90's references.

Great read for aspiring actors
I really enjoyed it particularly because I related to Franny (the main character) a lot. Her naivety and lack of confidence can be quite frustrating at times and I was hoping for more evolution in her personal development but the incredible humor makes up for it and Lauren's fast-paced narration keeps you on your toes.

Book was okay
Book was okay, but nothing special, it gives a bit motivation as the main character is very ambitious and does everything to make her dreams come true.

A book Lorelei would read
Thoroughly enjoyed it. It wouldn't be a Lauren Graham book if I didn't want a sequel. Hoping for more from this author.

I loved listening to Lauren Graham throughout the book her personality shins through and it's makes listing to the story more interesting. the book started off well and I really enjoyed it, but when it ended.. I was left with wanting more!!which was disappointing because it just stopped with so many unanswered questions. hope she will write a sequel to this or make it into a tv drama.

Charming, elevated by the author's narration
A fun and breezy novel with autobiographical elements which gives it more grounded and realistic. Lauren Graham does the narration herself and this elevates it tremendously - she knows exactly how she intended the inflection and performance to be and this conveys the story effectively, particularly the more comedic moments.
A real delight.

Uplifting
Could have accidentally listened to the whole thing and not got anything else done. Very real and relatable, love hearing about a woman with a dream in the arts who works hard pursuing what she loves despite having very human insecurities and flaws, the character has blend of toughness and fragility that makes her feel like someone you might already have as a friend.

Someday, Yes, Maybe
Would you listen to Someday, Someday, Maybe again? Why?
Yes, Because it was a good mix of both success and failure. Lauren captures the audience with her failures and slowly we are shown her successes
What did you like best about this story?
That the story was a mix of romance that didn't overpower the story but got you engaged and the book ended with the questions of 'What will happen next?'
Did you have an emotional reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?
The book was full of laughter and heartbreak. It was a joyful book which you laugh along with Lauren however, it is heartbreaking because she makes the mistakes that many women do still today and it brings up reminders of where you might have come from.
Any additional comments?
Lauren Graham captures a good mix of fun, laughter, romance and heartbreak with a ending which has you having on for more.
