The Stars Look Like Home

About this book

From beloved #1 New York Times bestselling author TJ Klune comes a joyful, moving adventure about a dog in search of his person--and his place in the universe. A promise: The dog does not die in this. As a puppy, Burke's mother told him that dogs' lives are like the stars in the sky: An everlasting light in the darkness. So naturally, Burke believes he's immortal. When he discovers the truth--that shollies from the suburbs don't live forever--he sets out to find his place in the world and make the most of life. But try as he might, he's passed from family home to training program, from the suburbs to the mountains, until, at last, he meets Jake, the man who feels like home. Jake is a grieving professor who needs a reason to get up, get dressed, and go on. Burke is overjoyed to be that reason, but Burke knows he won't live forever, so he takes on the ultimate task: find Jake someone to love before Burke takes his place as a star in the sky. The Stars Look Like Home is a funny and heartfelt story about trusting the universe to guide you home and then holding on tight when you get there. The hardcover edition will feature a beautiful case stamp.
