NATIONAL BESTSELLER A charmingly relatable and wise memoir-in-essays by acclaimed writer and bookseller Mary Laura Philpott, “the modern day reincarnation of…Nora Ephron, Erma Bombeck, Jean Kerr, and Laurie Colwin—all rolled into one” (The Washington Post), about what happened after she checked off all the boxes on a successful life’s to-do list and realized she might need to reinvent the list—and herself. Mary Laura Philpott thought she’d cracked the code: Always be right, and you’ll always be happy. But once she’d completed her life’s to-do list (job, spouse, house, babies—check!), she found that instead of feeling content and successful, she felt anxious. Lost. Stuck in a daily grind of overflowing calendars, grueling small talk, and sprawling traffic. She’d done everything “right” but still felt all wrong. What’s the worse failure, she wondered: smiling and staying the course, or blowing it all up and running away? And are those the only options? Taking on the conflicting pressures of modern adulthood, Philpott provides a “frank and funny look at what happens when, in the midst of a tidy life, there occur impossible-to-ignore tugs toward creativity, meaning, and the possibility of something more” (Southern Living). She offers up her own stories to show that identity crises don’t happen just once or only at midlife and reassures us that small, recurring personal re-inventions are both normal and necessary. Most of all, in this “warm embrace of a life lived imperfectly” (Esquire), Philpott shows that when you stop feeling satisfied with your life, you don’t have to burn it all down. You can call upon your many selves to figure out who you are, who you’re not, and where you belong. Who among us isn’t trying to do that? “Be forewarned that you’ll laugh out loud and cry, probably in the same essay. Philpott has a wonderful way of finding humor, even in darker moments. This is a book you’ll want to buy for yourself and every other woman you know” (Real Simple).

In 1975 Carolyn Proctor underwent a routine surgery in an Atlanta hospital. The day before she was to return home, she was sitting up in bed, catching up on office work, chatting with her sister who had come to visit, and talking to her mother, Julia, on the phone. A few hours later, Carolyn began to hemorrhage; although doctors operated to stop the bleeding that evening, they were unable to wake her afterward. Carolyn had slipped into a coma, and scans showed very little brain activity. Waiting for their mother to come home were five-year-old Jody and his sister, Becky. Carolyn, Julia, Jody, and Becky didnt know it yet, but their lives had changed forever. After months in limbo, Jody and Becky were still asking for their mother, and their grandmother was advised to tell them that Carolyn had died. After all, it was only a matter of time until the inevitable end came. Julia refused, and took Jody to see Carolyn in the hospital. What happened next marked the beginning of Carolyns journey back to her family. Told by Jody, this is a remarkable story of how God works through loved ones to accomplish his will for us. If you have ever wondered how to make sense of tragedy or difficult circumstances, this will inspire you to discover Gods purpose behind it all. And if you have ever wanted to give up on the power of hope and love, be ready to have your faith renewed.

Throughout my lifelong experiences in church, I have been taught that there were only two final destinations: heaven and hell. Preachers teach that there is a heaven to gain and a hell to shun, which is absolutely true. I have further learned through my ability that it too is possible for spirits to remain earthbound. This occurs when these spirits reject themselves from walking into the light due to inability of letting go of their physical life. The two types of spirits that are earthbound are intelligent and residual. The intelligent spirits can communicate with the physical world, and residual spirits are on repeat every day. With the help of my youngest brother’s God-given abilities, I slowly learned how to embrace the gift that I have been given. I encourage anyone who senses these abilities to embrace it and pursue it, although it may be difficult to understand this gift. There are many people in the world experiencing similar situations. I gradually learned how to live with my ability, which led me to a solid four years of writing this book so that others will find the courage to express their gifts in their own special form.
