About this listen

NATIONAL BESTSELLER • “This gender-swapped When Harry Met Sally retelling is for anyone who craves romance novels with realistic and flawed characters. Ari and Josh circle each other for years in the kind of delicious, slow-burn tension that only comes from a well-executed enemies-to-friends-to-lovers arc.”—NPR

“Fresh, witty, and utterly romantic.”—Ali Hazelwood, author of The Love Hypothesis

AN NPR AND GLAMOUR BEST BOOK OF THE YEAR

Can they stop hating each other long enough to fall in love?

When Ari and Josh first meet, the wrong kind of sparks fly. They hate each other. Instantly.

A free-spirited, struggling comedian who likes to keep things casual, Ari sublets, takes gigs, and she never sleeps over after hooking up. Born-and-bred Manhattanite Josh has ambitious plans: Take the culinary world by storm, find The One, and make her breakfast in his spotless kitchen. They have absolutely nothing in common . . . except that they happen to be sleeping with the same woman.

Ari and Josh never expect their paths to cross again. But years later, as they’re both reeling from ego-bruising breakups, a chance encounter leads to a surprising connection: friendship. Turns out, spending time with your former nemesis is fun when you’re too sad to hate each other—and too sad for hate sex.

As friends-without-benefits, they find comfort in late-night Netflix binges, swiping through each other’s online dating profiles, and bickering across boroughs. It’s better than romance. Until one night, the unspoken boundaries of their platonic relationship begin to blur. . . .

With sharp observations and sizzling chemistry, You, Again explores the dynamics of co-ed friendship in this sparkling romantic comedy of modern love in all its forms.

Critic reviews

"This is a ‘When Harry Met Sally’ retelling that spotlights two enemies-turned-friends-turned-lovers over the course of a decade in New York City. It’s raunchy and lovable and laugh-out-loud funny. We just know this is going to be a huge hit.”—USA Today



“[Kate] Goldbeck . . . upends gender norms [and] approaches the love story here with a frankness that hallmarks many of the norms and challenges of millennial dating. . . . Much of that is welcome, whether it be the wider range of sexual identities on display or the multicultural make-up of the cast of characters that feels distinctly more like the reality of a bustling metropolis.”—Entertainment Weekly, “Our Favorite 2023 Fall Romance Novels”

“This is a romance sung in perfect pitch! A spectacular debut!”—Christina Lauren, New York Times bestselling authors of The Unhoneymooners

Loved this modern taken on when Harry met Sally. Josh and Ari were so perfectly imperfect for each other and the narrator dld such an amazing job brining them both to life!

I’ll have what she’s having.

When Harry Met Sally set in 2023 and with some steam? What’s not to love?

Great flawed and complicated characters!

I love complicated and flawed protagonists! A lot of people are leaving lackluster reviews because they thought the two main characters weren’t likable, but I really love characters like that and loved seeing them both grow!

a Steamy tale

it's out there, that's for sure. Ari wild and open-minded with sex but when is it love? Can she risk it? From not knowing who your person could actually be. Josh, what seems to be is so uptight but isn't afraid of love. of all people in the world, you keep running into that one person that you thought never to look twice at. I found myself with giggles, giddy and laughing. I love the narrator. I just think it would have been cute if it was her voice (Ari) and a male for Josh. still a good listen.

So good!

I love the banter and the dynamic between Josh and Ari. It’s also different to hear it read out like a script. It got a little confusing trying to figure out which character the narrator was talking about in the beginning but it really felt like I’m hearing a story being told. I’m so happy with this book. Highly recommend!

cute but long

good banter. well drawn characters. vivid setting. no plot but that's okay. the story was better for it. narrator was on point. a little slow. but I enjoyed the span of time and development of the characters relationship.

Excellent!

Excellent modern rom com! Loved the humor and cynicism of the MC and the eventual romance. Great spicy scenes and excellent narration.

what's the opposite of bi-erasure :)

I love how this rom com was able to portray a bisexual character that was so well rounded and not making her "pick" a side
