Book Summary - Funny Story by Emily Henry

In this episode of Literature on the Rocks

We dive headfirst into Funny Story by Emily Henry, a rom-com that delivers all the banter, heartache, and swoon-worthy moments we could ask for. We break down every juicy detail, from what a grade-A jerk Peter is (seriously, why is Petra even at his bachelor party?) to the electric chemistry between Daphne and Miles. We also tackle the deeper themes—like daddy issues, self-discovery, and what exactly a field-cum-parking lot is (spoiler: it’s not at all what it sounds like).

Emily Henry once again serves up a romance that’s equal parts hilarious and heartfelt, and we’re here for all of it. Plus, we’re capping off the episode with a cocktail as charming as a rom-com meet-cute:
