About The Wedding · Danielle Steel
Sally Rooney, 2024
Also longing and love. Two brothers, one bereaved summer, and the careful negotiations of love — Rooney's close, unsparing attention to how people actually talk to each other.
Yes I would like he thinks to live in such a way that I could vanish into thin air at any time without affecting anyone and in fact I feel that for me this would constitute the perfect and perhaps the only acceptable life. At the same time I want desperately to be loved. Elsie Silver, 2025
Also love and longing. A romance about the person who makes silence feel like conversation, and the marriage that turns a guarded man’s certainty into something like obsession.
Grieving something that never was and never will be is a special sort of hell. Colleen Hoover, 2016
Also love and longing. A Boston florist falls for a neurosurgeon, then meets the first boy she loved—and must reckon with what she owes her own history.
Imagine all the people you meet in your life. There are so many. They come in like waves, trickling in and out with the tide. Some waves are much bigger and make more of an impact than others. Sometimes the waves bring with them things from deep in the bottom of the sea and they leave those things tossed onto the shore. Imprints against the grains of sand that prove the waves had once been there, long after the tide recedes. That was what Atlas was telling me when he said “I love you.” He was letting me know that I was the biggest wave he’d ever come across. And I brought so much with me that my impressions would always be there, even when the tide rolled out. K.L. Walther, 2021
Also love and longing. A grieving girl returns to Martha’s Vineyard for a family wedding, a cutthroat game of Assassin, and a boy who makes the summer feel possible again.
Let’s pretend that time doesn’t exist. Let’s pretend that this week isn’t ending. Let’s pretend that we will always be us—happy, sunburnt, and tangled up together. Taylor Jenkins Reid, 2021
Also family and longing. One family, one legendary Malibu party, and the marriage that made them: famous parents, and the children left holding the house.
The story of June and Mick Riva seemed like a tragedy to their oldest child, Nina. It felt like a comedy of errors to their first son, Jay. It was an origin story for their second son, Hud. And a mystery to the baby of the family, Kit. To Mick himself it was just a chapter of his memoir. Ali Hazelwood, 2023
Also longing and ambition. A nineteen-year-old former chess prodigy, broke and swearing off the game, gets dragged back to a board—and into the orbit of the world champion she once watched on her phone.
