Synopsis
&“Fans of Sarah Dessen and Mary Kay Andrews will enjoy this grown-up Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants, a story of risk, reward, loss, and love&” (Booklist). A Publishers Weekly Pick of the Week and a New York Post Required Reading Pick It all starts when four unsuspecting women, on a singles&’ bike trip through Normandy, discover a mysterious red book about love. But did they discover it—or did the book bring them together? Somehow the possibly magical Love Book will insinuate itself into Emily&’s, Beatrice&’s, Max&’s, and Cathy&’s lives, which so far haven&’t turned out exactly the way society, their families, or they themselves have planned. Along the way, they&’ll be nudged, cajoled, inspired—perhaps even &“guided&”—in spite of themselves to discover love, fulfillment, and the true nature of being a soul mate. &“The Love Book should come with a warning: Do not begin unless you can afford to finish it—today. I could not, and did not, put it down. A contemporary Jane Austen, Nina Solomon has written a smart and funny book about what it&’s like to be a woman, no longer young but not yet old and still single, looking for love in all the wrong places, only to find life. I laughed out loud so often I was downright downcast when I reached the last page and had to give up the good company of these wonderful characters.&” —Beverly Donofrio, author of Astonished: A Story of Healing and Finding Grace &“Happy endings abound in this novel about the power of love and friendship.&” —Kirkus Reviews &“A compelling mix of story lines . . . Plenty of good banter and characterization.&” —Publishers Weekly
