Why read it?

1 author picked The Thing About Home as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

This book was unexpected and great in so many ways.

I expected to root for the heroine and cheer at her finding her roots. What I didn’t know I wanted was the heart in the journey, the Southern cooking, and just how precious finding your family, your place in a story bigger than you truly are.

Rhonda McKnight knocked this book out of the park with a celebrity heroine who goes down South and finds a reason for waking up every day. 

This was so much more than a romance and a read worth reading again.
