Twelve letters to see him through the first year without her, and to lead him on a heartrending, beautiful, often humorous journey to find happiness again"-- <p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br> <b><i>Every month, a letter. </i>That's what Lauren decides to leave her husband when she finds out she's dying. Each month, she gives Josh a letter containing a task to help him face this first year without her, leading him on a heartrending, beautiful, often humorous journey to find happiness again in this new novel from the <i>New York Times</i> bestselling author Kristan Higgins. </b><br> <b> </b><br> Joshua and Lauren are the perfect couple. Newly married, they're wildly in love, each on a successful and rewarding career path. Then Lauren is diagnosed with a terminal illness. <p/> As Lauren's disease progresses, Joshua struggles to make the most of the time he has left with his wife and to come to terms with his future--a future without the only woman he's ever loved. He's so consumed with finding a way to avoid the inevitable ending that he never imagines his life after Lauren. <p/> But Lauren has a plan to keep her husband moving forward. A plan hidden in the letters she leaves him. In those letters, one for every month in the year after her death, Lauren leads Joshua on a journey through pain, anger, and denial. It's a journey that will take Joshua from his attempt at a dinner party for family and friends to getting rid of their bed...from a visit with a psychic medium to a kiss with a woman who isn't Lauren. As his grief makes room for laughter and new relationships, Joshua learns Lauren's most valuable lesson: The path to happiness doesn't follow a straight line. <p/> Sometimes heartbreaking, often funny, and always uplifting, this novel from <i>New York Times </i>bestselling author Kristan Higgins illuminates how life's greatest joys are often hiding in plain sight. <p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br> <b>Praise for <i>Pack Up the Moon<br></i></b><br> A gorgeous study of love, life and grief, this book broke my heart--and then stitched me back together again.
