Welcome to Litsy!

How do you change your luck? Katherine Center�s marvelously entertaining and poignant new novel is about choosing to look for happiness�and maybe getting lucky enough to find it. Sarah Harper isn�t sure if the stupid decisions she sometimes makes are good choices in disguise�or if they�re really just stupid. But either way, after forwarding an inappropriate email to her entire company, she suddenly finds herself out of a job. So she goes home to Houston�and her sister, Mackie�for Thanksgiving. But before Sarah can share her troubles with her sister, she learns that Mackie has some woes of her own: After years of trying, Mackie�s given up on having a baby�and plans to sell on eBay the entire nursery she�s set up. Which gives Sarah a brilliant idea�an idea that could fix everyone�s problems. An idea that gives Sarah the chance to take care of her big sister for once�instead of the other way around. But nothing worthwhile is ever easy. After a decade away, Sarah is forced to confront one ghost from her past after another: the father she�s lost touch with, the memories of her mother, the sweet guy she dumped horribly in high school. Soon everything that matters is on the line�and Sarah can only hope that by changing her life she has changed her luck, too. From the Trade Paperback edition.
