From the bestselling author of In Five Years
'We've been waiting for an hour.' That's what Audrey says. She states it with a little bit of an edge, her words just bordering on cursive. That's the thing I think first. Not, Audrey Hepburn is at my birthday dinner, but Audrey Hepburn is annoyed.
What if your dream dinner party were to actually happen? For New Yorker Sabrina, fantasy becomes reality when she arrives at her thirtieth-birthday celebration to find not only her best friend but also her long-dead father, her admired philosophy professor, the love of her life - and silver-screen icon Audrey Hepburn. Unbelievable though this may seem, as the wine and conversation start to flow it becomes clear that these individuals have each played a crucial role in the course Sabrina's life has taken - and that they have come together at this moment in time for a reason...
Follow Sabrina over one evening and ten years as she grapples with the definition of romance, the expectations of love - and how to navigate her way to happiness in this bittersweet romance for our times.
'wistful, delicious, romantic, magical' Gabrielle Zevin, New York Times bestselling author
I could not put down this book! Loved, loved, loved it. So much romance, so much Hollywood gossip, so much fun. * Sarah Mlynowski, author of TEN THINGS WE DID (AND PROBABLY SHOULDN'T HAVE) on FAMOUS IN LOVE *
Fantasy becomes reality in this exhilarating love story you won't want to put down. * Susane Colasanti, author of WHEN IT HAPPENS on FAMOUS IN LOVE *
Serle establishes a glamorous premise in a gorgeous setting, as well as an enticing romance-within-a-romance framework. * Publishers Weekly on FAMOUS IN LOVE *
Imagine that you could gather the people you've loved-dead or alive-at one table, for one night, with a chance to heal yourself once and for all. The Dinner List is a heartbreakingly romantic book framed by such an evening. It's Serle's unflinching investigation into the triumph and failings of love that makes this book one of a kind. A touch magic, a touch tragic, and absolutely compelling from beginning to end. * Stephanie Danler, author of Sweetbitter *
I read The Dinner List in a single day, unable to tear myself away from this unconventional dinner party. Rebecca Serle draws you in with this clever and delightful story and then (when you least expect it) offers up some of the sharpest insights on first loves, friendships and family. This book is completely original and wildly entertaining. * Jennifer Close, author of The Hopefuls *
I have five words for Rebecca Serle's The Dinner List: wistful, delicious, romantic, magical, love. * Gabrielle Zevin, author of The Storied Life of A.J. Fikry *
