BookPage calls Katherine Center “the reigning queen of comfort reads.”

She is the New York Times bestselling author of twelve novels, including The Bodyguard, Things You Save in a Fire, and The Rom-Commers, among others. Her newst, THE LOVE HATERS was an instant New York Times, Publishers Weekly, and USA Today bestseller last summer.

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. The movie adaptation of her novel The Lost Husband (starring Josh Duhamel) hit #1 on Netflix in 2020 and made their Top 25 movies of the year.

Katherine is a passionate advocate for the cultural value of love stories. She writes laugh-and-cry books about how life knocks us down and how we get back up—deep rom-coms full of wisdom that are 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 been translated all over the world—and has made countless Best-Of lists, including Barnes & Noble’s Best Books of the Year, the Indie Next Great Reads List, Amazon’s Top 100 Books of the Year, Goodreads’ Best Books of the Year, Library Reads Hall of Fame, People’s Best New Books, 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 good-hearted husband, two mostly-grown kids, and their fluffy-but-fierce dog.
