“Readers will be captivated by the bold storytelling and colorful expression in Tammy Letherer’s memoir, The Buddha at my Table… The honesty, humor, and inspiration in Tammy’s story make it a must-read.”
―Betty Hafner, Author of Not Exactly Love: A Memoir
“In her new book, Tammy Letherer writes candidly and honestly of the demise of her marriage and its impact on the lives of her family and herself. Although the story of unexpected divorce is sadly becoming all too familiar, few have written as clearly or as frankly about it as Letherer has done here. Not only does she take the reader step by step through her experience, she also explores her role in the unraveling of the relationship. Through her exploration, she gains awareness into the person she is and the person she wants to be. She shares her insights and offers a helpful and hopeful journey for herself and others experiencing a similar situation. This was a book I was unable to put down. I am confident others will find it beneficial and engaging as well.”
―Kathryn Taylor, author of Two Minus One
“The Buddha at My Table is an honest journey through the death of a marriage and rebirth of one of life’s most unnurtured forces: resilience. In this inspiring memoir, Letherer’s prose resonates effortlessly with anyone who has ever suffered an unexpected loss of love, a loss that, for the author, proves to be a disguised blessing on the path to finding her heart. The road is bumpy, sometimes sinuous, yet Letherer has a special way of keeping us right by her side. When she writes, ‘There’s a sense that I’m participating in life, not at its mercy,’ you realize just how far she’s come. A wonderfully written and remarkably relatable account.“
―Jonna Spilbor, attorney, legal analyst, and creator of Divorce Boss
“Tammy Letherer holds up every piece of a shattered marriage and finds a way to make each one reflect the light. In doing so, she affirms the teaching from A Course in Miracles that says ‘All your past except its beauty is gone and nothing is left but a blessing.’ These pages will point you toward peace.”
―Maureen Muldoon, author of The Spiritual Vixen's Guide to an Unapologetic Life
