BookPage calls Katherine Center “the reigning queen of comfort reads.”
She is the New York Times bestselling author of ten novels, including The Bodyguard, How to Walk Away, and Things You Save in a Fire. Her newest, HELLO STRANGER, was an instant New York Times and USA Today bestseller.
Katherine’s 2015 novel, Happiness for Beginners, is now a movie starring Ellie Kemper and Luke Grimes that hit the Netflix’s Global Top 10 in 81 countries around the world in the summer of 2023. The movie adaptation of her novel The Lost Husband (starring Josh Duhamel) hit #1 on Netflix in 2020, made their Top 25 movies of the year, and was a Top 10 movie in over 30 countries.
Katherine writes laugh-and-cry books about how life knocks us down and how we get back up—deep rom-coms that are, as she puts it, “half struggle and growth, and half love story.” She’s been compared to both Jane Austen and Nora Ephron, and the Dallas Morning News calls her stories, “satisfying in the most soul-nourishing way.”
Her work has appeared in O Magazine, Vanity Fair, The Atlantic, Redbook, InStyle, People, and many others—and has made countless Best-Of lists, including RealSimple’s Best Books of 2020, Amazon’s Top 100 Books of 2019, Goodreads’ Best Books of the Year, and more.
Katherine holds degrees from Vassar College and the University of Houston’s Creative Writing Program and lives in her hometown of Houston, Texas with her kind-hearted husband, two fun teenagers, and their fluffy-but-fierce dog.
