@readwithstef Ok my fellow Katherine Center Fan Club members, you need to push this one towards the top of your list! 😍 This is such a sweet story about loss, grief, motherhood, family, love, and finding home. There’s a grumpy-sunshine-ish love story here, but I mostly loved the way our mc grew and dealt with the struggles and joys of being a mother. 💛 The Lost Husband by Katherine Center ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Did I laugh? Every single time they referred to this one kid as Pee Pants! 🤣 Did I cry? I did a little bit. 🥹 Did I love it? So much! This one ranks as number two or three on my list of KC books.❤️ I also watched the movie this past weekend, and it was really cute! It wasn’t as good as the book, of course, but who doesn’t love looking at joshduhamel with a scruffy beard, tight jeans, and a cowboy hat on?🔥 #bookstagram #bookstagrammer #bibliophile #bookworm #bookwormlife #booklover #loverofbooks #momswhoread #reader #readerlife #audiobooklover #bookreview #bookreviewer #fivestars #bookblogger #thelosthusband #thelosthusbandmovie #katherinecenter #katherinecenterbooks #joshduhamel #netflix #bookstofilm #tnbookstagrammers #tnblogger #franklinblogger #tantormedia #ballantinebooks #target

Description



About the Book



Crazy Aunt Jean has offered Libby an escape from her hypercritical mother--a job and a place to live on her farm in the Texas Hill Country. Life on Aunt Jean's goat farm is both more wonderful and more mysterious than Libby could have imagined. Perfect for fans of Jennifer Weiner and Emily Giffin.



Book Synopsis



A tender and heartwarming novel that explores the trials of losing what matters most--and how there's always more than we can imagine left to find--from the New York Times bestselling author of How to Walk Away and Things You Save in a Fire

Now a major motion picture starring Leslie Bibb and Josh Duhamel - "A sweet tale about creating the family you need."--People

Dear Libby, It occurs to me that you and your two children have been living with your mother for--Dear Lord!--two whole years, and I'm writing to see if you'd like to be rescued.

The letter comes out of the blue, and just in time for Libby Moran, who--after the sudden death of her husband, Danny--went to stay with her hypercritical mother. Now her crazy Aunt Jean has offered Libby an escape: a job and a place to live on her farm in the Texas Hill Country. Before she can talk herself out of it, Libby is packing the minivan, grabbing the kids, and hitting the road.

Life on Aunt Jean's goat farm is both more wonderful and more mysterious than Libby could have imagined. Beyond the animals and the strenuous work, there is quiet--deep, country quiet. But there is also a shaggy, gruff (though purportedly handsome, under all that hair) farm manager with a tragic home life, a formerly famous feed-store clerk who claims she can contact Danny "on the other side," and the eccentric aunt Libby never really knew but who turns out to be exactly what she's been looking for. And despite everything she's lost, Libby soon realizes how much more she's found. She hasn't just traded one kind of crazy for another: She may actually have found the place to bring her little family--and herself--back to life.
