We're pretty big fans of Nora Ephron's romantic comedies here at Novelicious. When Harry Met Sally, Sleepless in Seattle and You've Got Mail to name just a few. Perhaps for this reason, What Nora Knew by Linda Yellin has been on our radar for a while and we'll have a review for you soon. In the meantime, however, you can enter to win one of three signed and personalised copies!
Molly Hallberg is a thirty-nine-year-old divorced writer living in New York City who wants her own column, a Wikipedia entry, and to never end up in her family’s Long Island upholstery business. For the past four years Molly’s been on staff for an online magazine, covering all the wacky assignments. She’s snuck vibrators through security scanners, speed-dated undercover, danced with the Rockettes, and posed nude for a Soho art studio.
Fearless in everything except love, Molly is now dating a forty-four-year old chiropractor. He’s comfortable, but safe. When Molly is assigned to write a piece about New York City romance “in the style of Nora Ephron,” she flunks out big-time. She can’t recognize romance. And she can’t recognize the one man who can go one-on-one with her, the one man who gets her. But with wit, charm, whip-smart humor, and Nora Ephron’s romantic comedies, Molly learns to open her heart and suppress her cynicism in this bright, achingly funny novel.To enter the competition, leave a comment telling us why you'd like to win.
