Mr B's review

Daphne’s fiancé has just left her for another woman. Even worse? Her new roommate is said woman’s ex. He’s her opposite in every way… and the only person who could possibly understand her predicament. They mostly avoid each other, until one night, after a few too many drinks, they hatch a hare-brained scheme: pretend to be together to make their exes jealous. What could possibly go wrong?

Emily Henry’s books embody everything that I love about this genre. Witty, unexpected, deeply emotional and exceptionally romantic, Funny Story shows why Emily Henry is the reigning romcom queen – Nora Ephron for a new generation!  – Liv

Description

FROM THE SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLING AUTHOR & GLOBAL TIK TOK SENSATION, EMILY HENRY

‘One of my favourite authors’ COLLEEN HOOVER, It Ends With Us
‘Emily knows how to craft a love story like the all-time greats’ TAYLOR JENKINS REID, Daisy Jones and The Six

Daphne always loved the way Peter told their story.

That is until it became the prologue to his actual love story with his childhood bestie, Petra.

Which is how Daphne ends up rooming with her total opposite and the only person who could possibly understand her predicament: Petra’s ex, Miles.

As expected, it’s not a match made in heaven – that is until one night, while tossing back tequilas, they form a plan.

And if it involves posting deliberately misleading photos of their adventures together, well, who could blame them?

But it’s all just for show, of course, because there’s no way Daphne would actually start her new chapter by falling in love with her ex-fiance’s new fiancee’s ex . . . right?

A shimmering, joyful new novel about a pair of opposites with the wrong thing in common, from #1 New York Times and Sunday Times bestselling author Emily Henry
