Emily Henry

Emily Henry är idag en av världens populäraste feelgoodförfattare. Hennes böcker har utsetts till Årets bästa feelgood i Goodreads Choice Awards fyra år i rad och samtliga ska filmatiseras. Alice Scott är den eviga optimisten som fortfarande drömmer om att slå igenom som skribent. Och för att göra det vill hon skriva biografin om Margaret Ives, arvtagerskan som prydde varenda tabloid och var skvallerpressens stora älskling som ung - innan hon plötsligt gick under jord och aldrig syntes till igen. När Alice äntligen lyckas hitta Margaret - eller åtminstone en åttioårig kvinna som påstår sig vara Margaret - beger hon sig till ön Little Crescent för att undersöka saken. Men Alice är inte den enda som åkt dit för att skriva om den skandalomsusade Margaret Ives ... Det visar sig att den prisbelönta skribenten Hayden Anderson är där på samma uppdrag. Och för att få det prestigefyllda jobbet måste de bo på ön i en månad och var för sig intervjua Margaret, för att sedan låta kvinnan välja den skribent hon gillar mest. Men berättar Margaret verkligen sanningen om sitt liv? Och hur ska Alice kunna koncentrera sig på jobbet när Hayden hela tiden finns där och påminner henne om den pulserande - och väldigt olämpliga - längtan som växer sig allt starkare mellan dem? Det blir snart allt tydligare att deras historia - precis som Margarets egen - kan bli ett mysterium, en tragedi eller en kärleksballad ... beroende på vem som berättar den.

#1 New York Times bestseller. Kåret til en af årets bedste bøger i New York Times 2024. To fremmede med knuste hjerter forenet af skæbnens ironi. Daphne og Peter er forlovede og klar til at tage hul på resten af livet sammen. De er forelskede og lykkelige … indtil det en dag går op for Peter, at han er vild med sin barndomsveninde, Petra. Derfor befinder Daphne sig pludselig alene i Michigan. Uden familie eller venner, men med et drømmejob som børnebibliotekar og med en ny bofælle – ingen ringere end Petras eks, Miles. Miles er Daphnes diametrale modsætning. Men en aften over en flaske vin og en masse shots indleder de alligevel en form for venskab, og de kommer på en snedig plan: For at gøre Peter og Petra jaloux vil de poste en masse billeder på de sociale medier af deres falske sommereventyr sammen. Det er kun for sjov, for Daphne kunne aldrig drømme om at forelske sig i sin eksforlovedes nye forlovedes eks … eller kunne hun? ”Emily Henry skriver intelligente, sofistikerede og dybfølte romantiske komedier.” – The Washington Post ”Det er simpelthen umuligt for Emily Henry at skrive en dårlig bog.” – Entertainment Weekly Emily Henry er en amerikansk bestsellerforfatter.

Emily Henry har fire år i træk vundet den læserbestemte pris Goodreads Choice Awards for bedste romance, senest for En god historie.

"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 new 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 20th 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."

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.

Daphne och hennes fästman Peter är redo att börja sitt liv tillsammans. De är förälskade och lyckliga - åtminstone fram till ögonblicket då Peter inser att han egentligen är kär i sin barndomsbästis Petra. Helt plötsligt är Daphne strandsatt i vackra Waning Bay, Michigan, utan vare sig familj eller vänner men med ett drömjobb som barnboksbibliotekarie och med en ny rumskamrat - Petras ex, Miles Nowak. Miles är raka motsatsen till Daphne och de två rumskamraterna gör sitt bästa för att undvika varandra. Tills de en kväll, samtidigt som de dränker sina sorger, inleder en trevande vänskap och kommer på en plan. Om sagda plan innefattar att lägga upp medvetet missledande bilder från deras sommaräventyr tillsammans - så vadå, vem kan klandra dem? Det är ju såklart inte på riktigt, för Daphne skulle absolut inte förälska sig i sin före detta fästmans nya fästmös ex ... eller hur? Emily Henry är idag en av världens mest populära feelgoodförfattare och hennes böcker har sålt i miljontals exemplar över hela världen.

From #1 New York Times bestselling author Emily Henry comes a sparkling and stylish boxed set of the first three novels that started the phenomenon: Beach Read, People We Meet on Vacation, and Book Lovers. Showcasing Emily Henry's trademark elevated romantic fiction, these three novels are filled to the brim with wit, banter, and joy, while also being relatable, genuinely funny, and cathartic, as Emily tackles themes that resonate deeply with her readers. Beach Read A romance author who no longer believes in love and a literary writer stuck in a rut engage in a summer-long challenge that may just upend everything they believe about happily-ever-afters. People We Meet on Vacation Alex and Poppy are the best of friends, and every summer they have taken one glorious week of vacation together--until two years ago, when they ruined everything. Now, Poppy wants her best friend back and convinces Alex to go on one more trip together: one week to fix everything. Book Lovers A cutthroat literary agent agrees to accompany her sister on a trip to Sunshine Falls, NC, in order to become the heroine in her own story, only to keep bumping into the brooding editor from back in the city.

Emily Henry's beloved New York Times bestselling novel now in this stunning hardcover collector's edition featuring: - A shimmering revamped cover - Sunset sky art endpapers and sprayed edges - Gold foil stamped case, and... - A new introduction from the author and a bonus January and Gus epilogue, "The Layover" A romance writer who no longer believes in love and a literary writer stuck in a rut engage in a summer-long challenge that may just upend everything they believe about happily ever afters. Augustus Everett is an acclaimed author of literary fiction. January Andrews writes bestselling romance. When she pens a Happily Ever After, he kills off his entire cast. They're polar opposites. In fact, the only thing they have in common is that for the next three months they're living in neighboring beach houses, broke and bogged down with writer's block. Then one hazy evening, one thing leads to another and they strike a deal designed to force them out of their creative ruts: Augustus will spend the summer writing something happy, and January will pen the next Great American Novel. She'll take him on field trips worthy of any rom-com montage, and he'll take her to interview surviving members of a backwoods death cult (obviously). Everyone will finish a book and no one will fall in love. Really. "A tender, thoughtful, and very funny book...it's not only convincing but infectious."--The New York Times Book Review

Augustus Everett og January Andrews er som natt og dag. Han er en kritikerrost forfatter, hun skriver romantiske bestselgere. Han er en svartsynt realist, hun er en ekte drømmer. Men de har likevel én ting felles: De lider av seriøs skrivesperre. En kveld inngår de et veddemål: Over de neste tre månedene skal de bytte roller. Augustus skal skrive en romance, og January skal skrive en litterær roman. Det låter såre enkelt! Innen sommeren er omme, vil begge ha skrevet en bok. Og ingen av dem vil ha forelsket seg … Overhodet ikke.
