Romantic Comedy

<p><strong>A TV script writer thinks she's over romance until an unlikely love interest upends all her assumptions: a humorous, subversive and tender-hearted novel from the New York Times and Sunday Times bestselling author of Rodham, American Wife and Prep.</strong></p> <p><strong>Life is (not) a Romantic Comedy...</strong></p> <p>With a series of heartbreaks under her belt, Sally Milz - a successful scriptwriter for a legendary late-night TV comedy show - has long abandoned the search for love.</p> <p>But when her friend and fellow writer begins to date a glamorous actress, he joins the growing club of interesting but average-looking men who get romantically involved with accomplished, beautiful women. Sally channels her annoyance into a sketch, poking fun at this 'social rule'. The reverse never happens for a woman.</p> <p>Then Sally meets Noah, a pop idol with a reputation for dating models. But this isn't a romantic comedy - it's real life. Would someone like him ever date someone like her?</p> <p><strong>Skewering all our certainties about why we fall in love, Romantic Comedy is a witty and probing tale of how the heart will follow itself, no matter what anyone says. It is Curtis Sittenfeld at her most sharp, daring and compassionate best.</strong></p>
