“Witty, romantic, and deeply satisfying.” —Emma Straub, New York
Times bestselling author of This Time Tomorrow From award-winning,
bestselling author David Levithan and beloved, acclaimed
singer-songwriter Jens Lekman comes a charming, tender novel about
an unlucky-in-love wedding singer trying to find the right words to
save his relationship J is an accidental wedding singer. Unlike
most wedding singers, he writes an original song for every
couple—his way of finding out about the small, strange things that
brought them together and the hopeful, vulnerable feelings they’re
experiencing. J’s own love life is in a state of flux.His
girlfriend is off to New York for work, and as her life grows
bigger and busier without him in it, he finds it harder to stick to
a happy tune. He doesn’t know whether to encourage the
soon-to-be-wed couples or warn them. When complications hit and
love is tested, is there any way to sing through all the noise?
Combining David Levithan’s deeply observant storytelling and Jens
Lekman’s inventive and touching original songs, Songs for Other
People’s Weddings is a tender, honest novel that tracks love
through all its chord changes, never forgetting that the best songs
contain the bitter and the sweet, the despair of losing it all and
the euphoria of being found.“Surprising, funny, compassionate—Songs
for Other People's Weddings Is not just lyrical, it sings.” —Steven
Rowley, New York Times bestselling author of The Celebrants and The
Guncle “A hilarious, heartfelt, and tremendously wise exploration
of love in all its beguiling and bittersweet absurdity.” —Grant
Ginder, author of The People We Hate at the Wedding
