X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html:<p><em>About the author:</em></p>\n<p><em>Boo
 kPage&nbsp\;</em>calls <strong>Katherine Center</strong> &ldquo\;the reign
 ing queen of comfort reads.&rdquo\; She&rsquo\;s the&nbsp\;<em>New York Ti
 mes&nbsp\;</em>bestselling author of over half a dozen books\, including&n
 bsp\;<em>How to Walk Away</em>\,&nbsp\;<em>Things You Save in a Fire</em>\
 , and&nbsp\;<em>What You Wish For</em>. Katherine writes laugh-and-cry boo
 ks about how life knocks us down&mdash\;and how we get back up. She&rsquo\
 ;s been compared to both Jane Austen and Nora Ephron\, and the Dallas&nbsp
 \;Morning News&nbsp\;calls her stories\, &ldquo\;satisfying in the most so
 ul-nourishing way.&rdquo\; Her books have made countless Best-Of lists\, i
 ncluding&nbsp\;<em>RealSimple</em>&rsquo\;s Best Books of 2020\, Amazon's 
 Top 100 Books of 2019\, Goodreads' Best Books of the Year\, and many more.
  The movie adaptation of Katherine&rsquo\;s novel&nbsp\;<em>The Lost Husba
 nd</em>&nbsp\;(starring Josh Duhamel) hit #1 on Netflix\, and her novel&nb
 sp\;<em>Happiness for Beginners</em>&nbsp\;is in production now as a Netfl
 ix original starring Ellie Kemper. Katherine lives in her hometown of Hous
 ton\, Texas\, with her husband\, two kids\, and their fluffy-but-fierce do
 g.</p>\n<p>In&nbsp\;<em><strong>Hello Stranger</strong></em>\,&nbsp\;Sadie
  Montgomery never saw what was coming\, literally! One minute she&rsquo\;s
  celebrating the biggest achievement of her life&mdash\;placing as a final
 ist in the North American Portrait Society competition&mdash\;the next she
 &rsquo\;s lying in a hospital bed diagnosed with a &ldquo\;probably tempor
 ary&rdquo\; condition known as face blindness. She can see\, but every fac
 e she looks at is now a jumbled puzzle of disconnected features. Imagine t
 rying to read a book upside down and in another language. This is Sadie&rs
 quo\;s new reality.</p>\n<p>But\, as she struggles to cope\, hang on to he
 r artistic dream\, work through major family issues\, and take care of her
  beloved dog\, Peanut\, she falls in love&mdash\;not with one man but two.
  The timing couldn&rsquo\;t be worse.</p>\n<p>Making judgment calls on any
 thing right now is a nightmare. If only her life were a little more in foc
 us\, Sadie might be able to have it all.<br /><br /><em><strong>Books will
