  "textContent": "\n\n\n\nIt's been over a year since Emily Henry published _Great Big Beautiful Life_ in April 2025, and she just gave us the update we've been waiting for: she's publishing a new book and it's coming in 2027!\n\nWhile on Jenna Bush Hager's podcast _Open Book with Jenna_ podcast, Emily Henry teased her brand new book, and even though she couldn't say much, she did confirm a few things: it's a straightforward romance, it's coming next summer, and it's influenced by _The Holiday_. Say less!\n\n* * *\n\n## Here's everything we know about Emily Henry's new romance book.\n\n### Emily Henry's new book is influenced by 'The Holiday'.\n\n\n\n\n>        View this post on Instagram            \n>\n> A post shared by TODAY (@todayshow)\n\nEmily Henry's appearance on the show comes between the release of the People We Meet on Vacation movie and the Beach Read movie.\n\n“Taking a year off was really interesting, because getting back into writing my next book, which should be out next summer, it was really — I was shocked how nervous I felt. I felt so scared to get back into it,” she says. “It is not a holiday book, but it kind of feels a little bit like my take on _The Holiday_ in a very small way,\" just like Book Lovers was influenced on You've Got Mail.\n\n### And the book will make you want to take a vacation.\n\n\n\n\nShe also reveals that the new book is “the book that you would write after taking a year off,\" and that \"it might make everyone want to take a year off. The person needed a break and gets a break.”\n\n\"This is another one that’s a pretty straightforward romantic comedy,” she continues. “My hope is that for my next book after that, I’ll kind of explore something else a little bit. Still keep it romance, but I’m kind of trying to alternate between exploring new territory and just like serving the readers what I think they’ve come to expect.”\n\n**Are you excited for Emily Henry's new book?
