Author: Katherine Center

Katherine Center is the New York Times bestselling author of How to Walk Away, the upcoming Things You Save in a Fire (August 2019), and five other bittersweet comic novels. Six Foot Pictures is currently adapting her fourth novel, The Lost Husband, into a feature film starring Josh Duhamel, Leslie Bibb, and Nora Dunn. Katherine has been compared to both Nora Ephron and Jane Austen, and the Dallas Morning News calls her stories, “satisfying in the most soul-nourishing way.” Katherine recently gave a TEDx talk on how stories teach us empathy, and her work has appeared in USA Today, InStyle, Redbook, People, Vanity Fair, The Atlantic, Real Simple, Southern Living, and InTouch, among others. Katherine lives in her hometown of Houston, Texas, with her fun husband, two sweet kids, and fluffy-but-fierce dog.

🐘Super excited to reread The Magician’s Elephant b 🐘Super excited to reread The Magician’s Elephant before watching the new movie on Netflix this weekend! Thanks so much @penguinrandomca for the review copy. It’s one of my favourite middle grade books. ❤️
I’m super excited to share my review for ITS ALL I I’m super excited to share my review for ITS ALL IN HOW YOU FALL by Sarah Henning on the blog today! 

It’s All in How You Fall by Sarah Henning combines sports with matchmaking as it follows a gymnast who must move forward after a career-ending injury. As a sucker for sports books, I loved the assortment of new sports that the main character explores, and the characters within the story have a sweet dynamic. This one left me with a smile on my face, and I would consider it a perfect feel-good summer read.

Be sure to check out my full review and favourite quotes from the book on the blog. (link in bio)

Thank you @tbrbeyondtours & @shhenning for the review copy!
