Author and humorist Preston Lawhorne was born and raised in the South. His childhood is just one piece of a larger puzzle that spans the years of his life. In this new collection of short stories and recollections, Lawhorne pays homage to many of the pieces that make up his "puzzle." Some of these pieces are people who guided him throughout his life. Others are events that changed it completely. As he examines each piece, Lawhorne's unique southern humor and gentle insights will put a smile on your face. Along the way, Lawhorne discusses the naming traditions of the South, the special time he got to spend with his father, a formative moment at Stump's general store, his mother's "One for All" approach to child raising, the origins behind his aversion to sushi, the world's strangest eating contest, the last stagecoach robbery in American history, and more hilarious adventures. While Lawhorne's tales sometimes include rivalries and conflicts with his brothers, his love for his family shines through in every story. He makes it clear that these were the pieces that mattered the most, and the lessons they taught him have followed him ever since.

Book Description
“As puzzle pieces click into place, The Missing Piece of Charlie O’Reilly reveals that it’s stories—and family—that make us whole. A deeply satisfying and beautiful book.” —Elana K. Arnold, National Book Award finalist and author of The Question of Miracles Charlie O’Reilly is an only child. Which is why it makes everyone uncomfortable when he talks about his brother. Liam. His eight-year-old kid brother, who, up until a year ago, slept in the bunk above Charlie, took pride in being as annoying as possible, and was the only person who could make Charlie laugh until it hurt. Then came the morning when the bunk, and Liam, disappeared forever. No one even remembers him—not Charlie’s mother, who has been lost in her own troubles; and not Charlie’s father, who is gone frequently on business trips. The only person who believes Charlie is his best friend, Ana—even if she has no memory of Liam, she is as determined as Charlie is to figure out what happened to him. The search seems hopeless—until Charlie receives a mysterious note, written in Liam’s handwriting. The note leads Charlie and Ana to make some profound discoveries about a magic they didn’t know existed, and they soon realize that if they're going to save Liam, they may need to risk being forgotten themselves, forever. Rebecca K.S. Ansari’s debut novel is a stunning contemporary fantasy about love, loss, and the power to forgive that we all have inside us—even if we sometimes forget that it’s there.
