A Novel Bunch
Author Interview: Inside the Brilliant Mind of Bestselling Author Annabel Monaghan
31 Jul 2025
#014: This week on A Novel Bunch, we’re joined by Library Reads Hall of Famer and New York Times bestselling author Annabel Monaghan—the beloved voice behind Nora Goes Off Script, our book of the month and a forever favorite.In this special episode, Annabel Monaghan sits down with us for a conversation that’s equal parts heartfelt, hilarious, and full of wisdom. We dive into the full-circle story of how she pursued writing later in life—despite it being a childhood dream—her proactive approach to getting the words down, and her advice on building lasting relationships (she’s been married nearly 30 years!). Annabel also shares the inspiration behind her latest book, It's A Love Story, her favorite character she’s ever written, and her top summer must-read. And in classic Annabel fashion, she leaves us with an unexpectedly moving take on funerals—and how they often bring out the best in people. You won’t want to miss this one!Let's get into it, Bunchies!
