Books from the Backlog - How to Walk Away


Today I'
m linking up with Carole from Carole's Random Life of Books for Books from the Backlog.  I really enjoy the chance to feature a book that's been hiding in the piles of books for far too long!

Goodreads:  How to Walk Away from Katherine Center

Blurb:  Margaret Jacobsen has a bright future ahead of her: a fiancĂ© she adores, her dream job, and the promise of a picture-perfect life just around the corner. Then, suddenly, on what should have been one of the happiest days of her life, everything she worked for is taken away in one tumultuous moment.

In the hospital and forced to face the possibility that nothing will ever be the same again, Margaret must figure out how to move forward on her own terms while facing long-held family secrets, devastating heartbreak, and the idea that love might find her in the last place she would ever expect.

Why It Needs to Come Off the Shelf:  This one has been sitting on my shelf for ages and I really want to read this author.  I think if I don't get to this one this year, I'm going to put Katherine Center on my Must-Read Authors list for 2025.

  1. I read this one back in 2019 and I remember liking it. I also read another of her books, What You Wish For, in 2020. I meant to read her backlist and also new ones, but haven't as yet. Think you would like this one, Katherine. And when I wrote about What You Wish For, I noted that the theme seems to be 'choose joy, even in difficult times'. Couldn't hurt, right?

  3. I loved this book! It's one of several Katherine Center novels that I love. Definitely put her on your list of authors to try next year. I can recommend this one, The Rom-Commers, Things You Save in a Fire, and The Bodyguard. :D
