Beach Read: Deluxe Edition

Emily Henry’s beloved New York Times bestselling novel now in this stunning hardcover collector’s edition featuring:

• A shimmering revamped cover.
• Sunset sky art endpapers and sprayed edges.
• Gold foil stamped case.
• A new introduction from the author and a bonus January and Gus epilogue, “The Layover”.

January Andrews writes swoon-worthy romances. Augustus Everett pens dark, brooding literary fiction. She believes in happily-ever-afters; he kills off his characters before dessert. They’re nothing alike—except for the fact that they’re both broke, creatively blocked, and living in neighboring beach houses for the summer.

One drunken challenge changes everything: for three months, they’ll swap genres. January will write something bleak and profound. Gus will try to craft a feel-good love story. To make it work, they dive headfirst into each other’s worlds—rom-com-worthy adventures for him, cult research and tragic backstories for her.

The plan? Push past writer’s block. Finish their novels. Absolutely do not fall in love.

Beach Read is a whip-smart, laugh-out-loud love story about opposites attracting, letting go of the past, and the wild, unexpected magic of getting exactly what you never thought you needed.
