A REESE’S BOOK CLUB PICK ∙ AN INSTANT #1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER ∙ Two writers compete for the chance to tell the larger-than-life story of a woman with more than a couple of plot twists up her sleeve in this dazzling and sweeping novel from Emily Henry.

Alice Scott is an eternal optimist still dreaming of her big writing break. Hayden Anderson is a Pulitzer-prize winning human thundercloud. And they’re both on balmy Little Crescent Island for the same reason: to write the biography of a woman no one has seen in years—or at least to meet with the octogenarian who claims to be the Margaret Ives. Tragic heiress, former tabloid princess, and daughter of one of the most storied (and scandalous) families of the twentieth century.

When Margaret invites them both for a one-month trial period, after which she’ll choose the person who’ll tell her story, there are three things keeping Alice’s head in the game.

One: Alice genuinely likes people, which means people usually like Alice—and she has a whole month to win the legendary woman over.

Two: She’s ready for this job and the chance to impress her perennially unimpressed family with a Serious Publication.

Three: Hayden Anderson, who should have no reason to be concerned about losing this book, is glowering at her in a shaken-to-the core way that suggests he sees her as competition.

But the problem is, Margaret is only giving each of them pieces of her story. Pieces they can’t swap to put together because of an ironclad NDA and an inconvenient yearning pulsing between them every time they’re in the same room.

And it’s becoming abundantly clear that their story—just like the tale Margaret’s spinning—could be a mystery, tragedy, or love ballad . . . depending on who’s telling it.

I loved every single thing about the story. Didn’t see the ending coming. Awesome performance by the narrator as well, really impressive

LOVED this book. Perfection

This book is a mosaic that you watch being put together piece by piece until it makes a complete picture and you‘ll feel all your emotions on the way there. 5 stars for Emily Henry as the author and 5 stars for Julia Whelan as the audiobook narrator 🩷

The perfect mosaic

The book consists of two stories, woven into one novel. There is the love story between the I narrator and her tall, dark, handsome introverted fellow writer, which is typical Emily Henry style. That, I liked. The other strand of action is the history of a shamelessly rich Californian family, told by one of the last surviving members of the clan. This, I found a bit controversial. I don't think, wealth makes a life story more valuable or important. I'm not a fan of society gossip and the fascination with the "rich and beautiful". So, while I was reading the book I sometimes felt overwhelmed by all the big drama and grandiose emotions attributed to the characters. But, fortunately, at the end, the author returns to a more down to earth perspective on the subject.

Not your typical Emily Henry novel

Book Lovers will forever hold a special place in my heart but this THIS… my heart is full, shattered, open, hopeful. This book is a magnificent piece of art. Go read it.

This was everything

Literally felt like getting to know the characters in real time with Alice, beautiful ending although a bit tough to stay focused in the beginning (bc characters weren't fleshed out yet so totally understandable)
Loved!

What a gem
