An insightful, delightful, instant #1 New York Times bestseller from the author of Funny Story.

“One of my favorite authors.”—Colleen Hoover

One summer. Two rivals. A plot twist they didn't see coming...

Nora Stephens' life is books—she’s read them all—and she is not that type of heroine. Not the plucky one, not the laidback dream girl, and especially not the sweetheart. In fact, the only people Nora is a heroine for are her clients, for whom she lands enormous deals as a cutthroat literary agent, and her beloved little sister Libby.

Which is why she agrees to go to Sunshine Falls, North Carolina for the month of August when Libby begs her for a sisters’ trip away—with visions of a small town transformation for Nora, who she’s convinced needs to become the heroine in her own story. But instead of picnics in meadows, or run-ins with a handsome country doctor or bulging-forearmed bartender, Nora keeps bumping into Charlie Lastra, a bookish brooding editor from back in the city. It would be a meet-cute if not for the fact that they’ve met many times and it’s never been cute.

If Nora knows she’s not an ideal heroine, Charlie knows he’s nobody’s hero, but as they are thrown together again and again—in a series of coincidences no editor worth their salt would allow—what they discover might just unravel the carefully crafted stories they’ve written about themselves.

Just finished the audiobook a minute ago and I think I have been crying constantly the past hour.
This book is the best of this year yet. This wasn't just a romance novel, it was about family, about loss, about being an outsider, trying to take care of others and forgetting yourself over it
At the same time it was so so hilarious! It made fun of all the common romance tropes and clichees, while celebrating them
I loved this book, it felt heavy like a boulder and light as a feather all at once
I liked Beach Read and People you met on vacation, but nowhere near to this

Her best yet!

I loved everything about it! I loved how meta it was: an author writing a romance book about editing a book about the protagonist while also crirically discussing romance book Novels. I also loved how she treasured writing, reading and words in general.
The Story had, of course, its tropes - but sometimes I feared some really bad plot tropes and although Henry touched them, she used them in a different, better way.

i also love how the Characters deal with their struggle, their trauma and i was so enormously happy when, in the end, Nora booked a meeting with a therapist. as someone who struggles with Depression, I always hate the Impression of romance books that the right guy Kisses you and boom, everythings fine. also, she made consent and good communication fucking sexy, instead of romanticizing toxic masculinity

Julia Whelan is absolutely fantastic. Loved everything about how she reads, she is a fantastic voice actor. Someone give her a raise please!!!

Great Character Development!

I have listened to this audiobook countless times, and I‘m still not over this story. It is so gripping and funny and makes you feel all the feels. I‘m relating to Nora and Charlie far more than I would have ever anticipated. And the narration from Julia Whelan is just perfection to me.

My absolute favorite romance novel out there.

This is light read with a fairly predictable storyline. But sometimes that is exactly what one needs, isn't it? Apart from that, the book is well written and it's easy to immerse oneself into the story. I really liked the reader. She gives her own voice slight nuances to change create the different character's voices without it feeling too forced. If you're looking for high literature this might not be for you, but if you fancy a light, yet well written story told by an enjoyable reading voice, I can only recommend this audiobook.

Good entertainment

The book reads almost like it was written to be put on screen, and I guess it will be a successful RomCom. I'm not a fan of romance novels myself, and while this one breaks many cliches, it's still a romance in the end.

A slightly less traditional romance novel
