Emily Giffin is the #1 bestselling novelist of Something Borrowed, Something Blue, and on shelves yesterday, The Summer Pact. Elin, Tim, and Emily dissect their college experiences and friendships, and similar to the plot of The Summer Pact, how those relationships are some of the closest you can have in your lives. They segue into the underlying themes in Emily’s 12 books, perspective and point of view in her writing, and her law degree before her career as a writer. Elin and Emily gab about college sports, divorce, their relationships with their daughters, and how to pronounce Capri. The three close with discussion on social media, Taylor Swift, the Royals, and a speed round of Emily’s favorite books and writers.
