On this episode of Complicated Conversations, we are thrilled to welcome back our friend and one of our favorites, #1 New York Times bestselling author, Emily Giffin, to discuss her new novel, The Summer Pact, which tells the story of a group of friends who make a pact in the wake of tragedy that will cause them to reunite a decade later and embark upon a life-changing adventure together. We are longtime fans and readers of Emily’s novels, and as you’ll hear on this episode, our connections with each other go way back and feel totally fated. So of course we had the best time chatting with Emily about the relatable characters of The Summer Pact, Hannah, Lainey and Tyson; why she likes to explore the messy parts of people and their lives; how friends can truly be found family and the importance of coming-of-age friendships; and the spot-on aspect of Emily’s astrological chart that resonates with her and the themes of this novel. The Summer Pact is out now and fans of Emily’s will be so thrilled to have this in their beach bags! Buy it, read it, share it, and listen to our spoiler-free chat wherever you get your podcasts.
