About this listen

Brought to you by Penguin.


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

Nora is a cut-throat literary agent at the top of her game. Her whole life is books.

Charlie is an editor with a gift for creating bestsellers. And he's Nora's work nemesis.

Nora has been through enough break-ups to know she's the woman men date before they find their happy-ever-after. That's why Nora's sister has persuaded her to swap her desk in the city for a month's holiday in Sunshine Falls, North Carolina. It's a small town straight out of a romance novel, but instead of meeting sexy lumberjacks, handsome doctors or cute bartenders, Nora keeps bumping into...Charlie.

She's no heroine. He's no hero. So can they take a page out of an entirely different book?

Set over one sizzling August, BOOK LOVERS is the new chemistry-filled 'rivals to lovers' romcom from New York Times #1 bestseller Emily Henry

Critic Reviews

Schitt's Creek for book nerds (Casey McQuiston, New York Times bestselling author of One Last Stop)
Her best yet (Taylor Jenkins Reid, New York Times bestselling author of Malibu Rising)
One of my favourite authors (Colleen Hoover, It Ends With Us)
One of the most enjoyable books you'll read this year
Sizzles on each page. This romcom is perfection
Her characters fizz like good champagne (JOSIE SILVER, author of One Night on the Island)
A LOL enemies-to-lovers rom-com that is calling out to be read on a beach
This book is perfect. I couldn't love it more (CRESSIDA McLAUGHLIN, author of Christmas Carols and a Cornish Cream Tea)
When I read an Emily Henry novel I always feel a particularly undignified kind of jealousy, because I wish I'd written it. Book Lovers is no different: I loved every page, every line. It's so smart, so funny and so sexy. Nora and Charlie have sizzling chemistry - they even make discussing a contract hot. Readers are going to fall head over heels for these two (Beth O'Leary, author of The Roadtrip)
You KNOW I love a book-and a writer-when I bust out my trusty ballpoint and absolutely maul the pages...and that's exactly what I just did to the divine Emily Henry. I could not devour Book Lovers fast enough. Emily Henry is pure delight. I'm utterly enchanted by her wry, self-aware sense of humour, the relish that she brings to every cleverly crafted sentence, and her irrepressible love for love (Katherine Center, New York Times bestselling author of Things You Save in a Fire and How to Walk Away)

I love everything about this book... to the point where I don't know where to start listing the things I love about it!

I won't bother with a review. But here's a zero-spoiler list of why this book is awesome :
1. Not heavy on any of the troupes, the story is smooth-flowing.

2. The unconventional leads.

3. The vivid and beautifully detailed emotional bits of the narrations (yes, this needs a separate mention).

4. I am convinced Sunshine Falls is Stars Hollow in so many ways!

5. The steamy bits and the non-steamy bits. Oh, well. The conversations. (glad I picked the Audible version!)

6. Humor is written for the characters and not the readers. OMG! And it's heartwarming.

7. The many bookish metaphors. Even perfume. But at no point is it overdone to justify the book name.

8. It's about being brave and ambitious. And practical.

9. There's a Wuthering Heights reference!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! My heart!

Quotes:

"He is gone. But I still feel him everywhere. I am Heathcliff."

"Maybe love shouldn't be built on a foundation of compromises. But maybe it can't exist without them either. Not the kind that forces two people into shapes they don't fit in. But the kind that loosens their grips - always leaves room to grow. Compromises that say 'There will be a you-shaped space in my heart. And if your shape changes, I will adapt. No matter where we go, our love will stretch out to hold us.'

"Maybe it's possible to have more than one home. Maybe it's possible to belong in a hundred different ways to a hundred different people and places."

Perfection through and through

Loved the story of the sisters as much as the romantic story. The narration was flawless and loved the crying voice of Nora in the end.

A romance with depth and character
