What happens when a marketing executive leaves San Francisco to care for her dying mother on their family farm in Ohio? A Hallmark heroine would fall in love with her high school sweetheart during a snowstorm—but this is no Hallmark movie. Sarah Gormley spent most of her life trying to outrun the persistent self-loathing that plagued her from childhood, convinced that self-worth was something she had to earn by doing rather than being. When she returned to Salt Creek Farm at age forty-five, Gormley had no idea that detaching from the success she believed defined her, untangling the complicated relationship with her mother, and continuing the hard work of therapy would lead to a wildly transformed life. Told with exceptional candor and humor, The Order of Things is a story about how one woman learned to let go of the patterns of her past to create a future she never imagined. Ultimately, Gormley’s book is about hope, with a powerful message that will inspire you to think about the possibility of change in your own life. “Sarah Gormley’s debut memoir is much more than the story of one woman who confronted her unhappiness and marched toward a better life. It is also a beautifully written testament to doing the hard work of changing your circumstances and opening your heart to a more meaningful life filled with hope and love. This story will resonate with any woman who has spent time chasing gold stars only to end up exhausted, lonely, and unfulfilled. Gormley’s a towering talent and a writer to watch!”— CHRISTIE TATE, NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLING AUTHOR OF GROUP AND B.F.F. “I’ve been waiting for this book since I heard Sarah speak at DePauw University in 2019, where I instantly fell in love with her as she described leaving her high powered job to care for her mother. Now, through her generous, beautiful book, I feel like she’s my best friend. The Order of Things is tender and sassy and real, like Sarah herself. I didn’t want this book to end, so I just might read it again and again!”— MEG KISSINGER, AWARD-WINNING JOURNALIST AND AUTHOR OF WHILE YOU WERE OUT About the AuthorLearn more about Sarah Gormley.
