Summary and Study Guide
Overview
Nora Goes Off Script is Annabel Monaghan’s first novel for adults. First published in 2022, it is a story of love, heartbreak, and resilience. When the protagonist, Nora Hamilton, falls in love with the movie star playing her ex-husband in a movie she wrote, she feels like she has entered a world of pure fantasy. Their love story plays out just like one of the romance movies she usually writes, until he leaves to film his next movie. However, through her heartbreak, Nora rediscovers her independence and emerges stronger than ever. A number of sources named the novel one of the Best Beach Reads of 2022, including The Washington Post, USA Today, and Book Riot.

A Hollywood crew comes to her home in Laurel Ridge, New York, to film the final breakup scene, which takes place in the stone teahouse located on her property.
