Description
Book Lovers by Emily Henry is a clever, heartfelt, and delightfully self-aware romantic comedy that flips the traditional love story on its head.
Nora Stephens is a literary agent who lives and breathes books—but she’s nothing like the sweet, small-town heroines from the stories she represents. She’s ambitious, sharp, and knows how to get what she wants. When her sister Libby insists on a sisters’ getaway to the charming town of Sunshine Falls, North Carolina, Nora is ready for quiet walks, coffee, and quality time.
What she doesn’t expect is to keep bumping into Charlie Lastra—a brooding, bookish editor from the city, and her professional nemesis. As circumstances (and a bit of fate) throw them together, their story unfolds into something unexpected: a witty, tender, and deeply emotional exploration of ambition, love, and the stories we tell ourselves.
Full of humor, chemistry, and heart, Book Lovers is Emily Henry’s ode to readers, writers, and anyone who’s ever felt like the side character in someone else’s story—only to find out they were the main character all along.
