In "Funny Story" by Emily Henry, Daphne's life takes an unexpected turn after her fiancé Peter leaves her for his childhood best friend, Petra…literally the day after his bachelor party. Stranded in Waning Bay, Michigan, Daphne finds herself without close friends or family but still has her dream job as a children’s librarian. Financially stretched, she ends up sharing a home with Petra's ex, Miles Nowak, a disheveled man who finds comfort in sad love songs. Initially, Daphne and Miles keep their distance, but shared heartache leads to a budding friendship and a playful scheme involving misleading photos to document their faux summer escapades. As they navigate their complex feelings, Daphne faces the possibility of falling for her ex-fiancé’s current fiancé's ex, challenging her previously practical and reserved nature.

How does Daphne’s initial heartbreak shape her journey throughout the story? Did Daphne find the fresh start she was looking for? How would we rate Emily Henry’s books from least to most favorite? Join us as we discuss these questions and more in this episode of our spoiler-filled podcast.

Great music huh?! The music for the intro and outro are segments from a song titled "Busy City" by TrackTribe, which was accessed through the YouTube audio library.
