Emily Henry has once again crafted a masterful and unforgettable tale with "Funny Story," seamlessly blending heartache, humor, and love in a way that only she can.

"Funny Story" is an engaging, funny, and deeply human tale that will leave you with a smile on your face and a warmth in your heart. If you love stories of love blossoming from unexpected places, found family, and discovering yourself, this book is a must-read.
