Hello Stranger: A Novel
von Katherine Center
The glorious novel from the beloved author whose bright, hopelessly romantic New York Times bestsellers have been called “My perfect 10 of a book” (Emily Henry) and cheered for their “speedy pacing and sexual tension for miles” (People).Love may be blind. But what if . . . what you see isn't what you get?It’s all starting to come together for struggling artist Sadie Montgomery. She was just named a finalist in the national portrait competition of her dreams. But when she winds up with a rare, but real, condition where human faces look like jumbled puzzle pieces . . . it is, to say the least, not good.With only a few weeks to paint the best portrait of her entire life, Sadie will do anything to reverse her condition and get back to work, but it’s anyone’s guess when (or even if) that'll happen.Enter her dog’s charming veterinarian (who may or may not be Sadie’s daydream fiancé), and her bowling-jacket-wearing, Vespa-riding neighbor (who she can’t seem to stay away from)―both vying for her attention and adding to the chaos.It’s a lot, but that doesn’t mean it’s bad. Because the truth is, seeing the world differently has its upsides. And love has an undeniable way of giving us courage. And the best way of looking is always, always with the heart."With its emphasis on its central character, combined with its “swoony” romance, “Hello Stranger” is a hit. Sadie is everything you could want in a protagonist ― the right amount of quirky, sunshiney and stubborn, and the men she’s in love with are equally fascinating. All the side characters provide humor and comfort, and even those characters who you aren’t really supposed to like are annoyingly intriguing and captivating. Center created a brilliant cast of characters, set to a plot that’s sure to keep you reading." --Michigan Daily

Rezension von reading.muslimahThis book was so beautiful and hilarious at the same time. I’ve never read anything like it before. It had me giggling, kicking my feet, and gasping in shock because I never saw that one thing coming! I was a little mad during the last 100 pages, but Katherine Center did not disappoint. I will definitely read more of her works in the future!
Rezension von Danielle BergThank you NetGalley and publisher for opportunity to read and review this arc honestly. I absolutely loved this book. It has all the emotions. I don’t usually tear up at books but there are a few spots my eyes got a little damp. The story was well done and I felt like I was there with the characters. Well definitely recommend to others!
