La primera novela de Rainbow Rowell, autora de Eleanor & Park.
Una historia emotiva, mágica e ingeniosa sobre lo que significa el amor, con unos personajes que llegan directamente al corazón.
«Hola, soy el tío que lee tus mensajes y, por cierto, me he enamorado de ti…»
Beth y Jennifer trabajan en el departamento de redacción de un periódico. Son inteligentes, divertidas y muy buenas amigas, y suelen escribirse correos en los que discuten aspectos de sus vidas personales, pero lo que no saben es que un compañero de trabajo también los está leyendo.
Lincoln O’Neill es el tipo que lee los correos. Ese es su trabajo en la empresa. Debería haberlas advertido la primera vez que transgredieron las normas, pero las dos parecen tan majas… Le gustan, le gustan mucho, sobre todo Beth.
¿Podrías enamorarte de alguien a quien no has visto nunca?
ENGLISH DESCRIPTION
“Attachments is so perfectly engaging, so sly, and so funny I read it all in one sitting, then went back and read my favorite scenes a second time…. I hope Rowell never stops writing.” (Haven Kimmel)
Beth and Jennifer know their company monitors their office email. But the women still spend all day sending each other messages, gossiping about their coworkers at the newspaper and baring their personal lives like an open book. Jennifer tells Beth everything she can’t seem to tell her husband about her anxieties over starting a family. And Beth tells Jennifer everything, period.
When Lincoln applied to be an internet security officer, he hardly imagined he’d be sifting through other people’s inboxes like some sort of electronic Peeping Tom. Lincoln is supposed to turn people in for misusing company email, but he can’t quite bring himself to crack down on Beth and Jennifer. He can’t help but be entertained – and captivated – by their stories.
But by the time Lincoln realizes he’s falling for Beth, it’s way too late for him to ever introduce himself. What would he say to her? “Hi, I’m the guy who reads your email, and also, I love you.” After a series of close encounters and missed connections, Lincoln decides it’s time to muster the courage to follow his heart…even if he can’t see exactly where it’s leading him.
Written with whip-smart precision and charm, Attachments is a strikingly clever and deeply romantic debut about falling in love with the person who makes you feel like the best version of yourself. Even if it’s someone you’ve never met.
