For New Year's week, we are re-airing one of our favorite episodes from the vault! Join us as the Fab Four — Mary Kay Andrews, Kristin Harmel, Kristy Woodson Harvey & Patti Callahan Henry — talk to reigning queen of the modern romance novel, Emily Henry, about her 2024 No.1 NYT-bestselling FUNNY STORY. Emily Henry is the author of four YA novels and, since 2020, she has published six NYT-bestselling rom-coms for adults (including BEACH READ, BOOK LOVERS, and HAPPY PLACE), with five of them being adapted for the big and small screens. In April 2024 Emily joined us to discuss FUNNY STORY, a shimmering, joyful novel about a pair of opposites with the wrong thing in common that went on to become a New York Times Notable Book. Now is the perfect time to revisit this chat as Emily comes off a truly incredible year. Emily’s 2025 novel GREAT BIG BEAUTIFUL LIFE was a #1 NYT bestseller and was named a Reese’s Book Club pick, and the movie adaptation of her 2021 THE PEOPLE WE MEET ON VACATION will premiere on Netflix just after the holidays on January 9, 2026. So, as you wait for the ball to drop this New Year’s Eve, tune in for this interview, now with a brand-new intro recorded by Kristy Woodson Harvey.
