Nastavak knjige Bolje nego na filmu.

Nekoliko čarobnih meseci, Ves je imao svoju devojku iz snova…

Ves i Liz su bili spremni da zajedno započnu novo poglavlje života. Ali sudbina je imala drugačije planove. Ves ostaje sam, sa velikom prazninom tamo gde je nekad bila ljubav.
Mesecima kasnije, ponovo su na istom fakultetu, ali više nisu isti. Ves zna da joj je slomio srce – ali još je voli. I spreman je da se bori za nju.

Bolje od bilo koga zna šta Liz voli: velike, romantične gestove kao iz njenih omiljenih filmova. I ima plan. Jedini problem je što Liz ne želi da ima ništa sa njim. A što je još gore, ima i novog prijatelja. Muškarca.

Ipak, prava ljubav ne odustaje. A Ves je rešen da joj dokaže da njihova priča još nije gotova.

„Ova knjiga je preslatka! Uživala sam da čitam priču iz Vesove perspektive!“ – Waterstones

„Apsolutno savršenstvo! Likovi koje već poznajemo i volimo, u novom okruženju i sa zrelošću koja dolazi kroz životna iskustva i gubitke. Tuga kroz koju su prolazili prikazana je toliko autentično, a ipak su uspeli da pronađu put jedno do drugog. Još bolje od prvog dela! – Waterstones

Ova knjiga našla se u najužem izboru za Goodreads Choice nagradu, a odmah po objavljivanju postala je BookTok hit.

Ako ste uživali u prvom delu, ovaj će vam se dopasti još više. Ima isti šarm, humor i trenutke zbog kojih vam srce zatreperi – ali uz dozu slomljenog srca. Plus, Vesovi pokušaju da bude junak iz romantične komedije nasmejaće vas do suza.

Lin Pejnter je autorka međunarodnog bestselera Bolje nego na filmu. Ona piše romantične komedije i za tinejdžere i za odrasle, a kada ne čita ili ne piše, velike su šanse da ispija energetska pića i gleda rom-kome.

From play dates on the playground to sneaking into movie theatres, Dani and Alec were inseparable as kids. Until Dani moved away. Years later, Dani is back in Minnesota, and exited to reconnect with the nerdy and comforting Alec. But teenage Alec is NOTHING like the boy she remembers. He's the hockey STAR in a town where hockey players are worshipped as gods – and he loves it.

When one thing leads to another and Dani and Alec find themselves thrown together and playing the role of boyfriend and girlfriend, “complicated” becomes an understatement. In this Minnesota town, hockey may rule, but romance is about to take its place.

Abi is a professional cleaner, so it’s ironic when she’s forced to move out because of an infestation in her building. Thanks, Apartment 2B!

Declan is a busy man, working his way up at Hathaway Holdings. Which is why he’s never met the woman who cleans his penthouse every week.

Abi needs a place to stay, and Declan is out of town, so the solution seems simple and, crucially, free.

When Declan’s parents tell him they met his girlfriend at his apartment, he's surprised to say the least. But it is nice to have them off his back about being single for a change. . .

Declan finds out who Abi really is, and decides to makes her a proposition: pretend to date him, and he’ll provide everything she needs.

Život ponekad ima gotov scenario za nas. Bolji nego na filmu.

Da je ljubav film, za Liz bi bio romantična komedija. Njen srećan kraj, međutim, tek treba da bude napisan. Još od detinjstva, ona sanja o filmskoj ljubavi. Jednog dana će upoznati savršenog momka i živeće srećno do kraja života. Zbog toga, kada se njena dugogodišnja simpatija Majkl vrati u grad, Liz to može da shvati samo kao znak sudbine: srećan kraj je tu, on je onaj pravi.

Kako bi napravila prvi korak u postavljanju temelja njihove večne ljubavi, mora da ga ubedi da je pozove na matursko veče. Iako ne želi, mora da pita za pomoć Vesa, svog iritantno privlačnog komšiju i zakletog neprijatelja. Ipak, što više vremena provode zajedno, Liz sve više shvata da Ves nije nestašni dečak kakav je nekada bio, onaj koji je podmetnuo žabu u njenu kućicu za lutke i obezglavio baštenskog patuljka. Voli da je zadirkuje i ume da bude prilično naporan, ali isto tako može i da joj izmami osmeh na lice, da je sasluša i izgleda da je zaista razume.
Liz sada mora da preispita sve što je mislila da zna o ljubavi. Jer u stvarnom životu, veliko finale nije uvek ono što očekujemo.

„Ova šarmantna, lepršava priča uspeva da upakuje svaki trop koji možete da zamislite u jednu šašavu radnju, od lažnog zabavljanja i transformacije do velikog nesporazuma.“ – Kirkus Reviews

Onaj osećaj kad si samo devojka... ispred svoje police za knjige....i maštaš da ti život bude kao film iz 2000-ih.
Bolje nego na filmu ima taj vajb – od prve strane do poslednje.

Sequel to Painter's much-loved romcom Better Than the Movies

Wes had his dream girl but then he lost her – and the only way to get her back is to scheme like a rom-com hero. For a few beautiful months, Wes and girl-next-door Liz were together. But right as the two were about to set off to UCLA together, tragedy struck and their relationship ended.

Flash forward and Wes and Liz find themselves in college, together. In a healthier place now, Wes knows he broke Liz’s heart, but is determined to make her fall back in love with him. And he has a foolproof plan to win her back with the rom-com worthy big gestures she loves. Only … Liz will have none of it. Wes has to scheme like a rom-com hero to figure out how to see her. Even worse, Liz has a new friend…a guy friend.

When seventeen-year-old Bailey starts a new job at a hotel waterpark, she is less than thrilled to see an old acquaintance is one of her coworkers. They didn’t get off to the best start but this is a new beginning and whilst they are still polar opposites, she starts to look forward to hanging out and gossiping about the waterpark guests and their coworkers—particularly two who keep flirting with each other.

Charlie insists that members of the opposite sex can’t just be friends, and Bailey is determined to prove him wrong. So they make a bet on whether or not the cosy pair will actually get together.

Perpetual daydreamer Liz Buxbaum gave her heart to Michael a long time ago. But her cool, aloof forever crush never really saw her before he moved away. Now that he’s back in town, Liz will do whatever it takes to get on his radar and maybe snag him as a prom date even befriend Wes Bennet.

The annoyingly attractive next-door neighbor might seem like a prime candidate for romantic comedy fantasies, but Wes has only been a pain in Liz’s butt since they were kids. Pranks involving frogs and decapitated lawn gnomes do not a potential boyfriend make. Yet, somehow, Wes and Michael are hitting it off, which means Wes is Liz’s in.

But as Liz and Wes scheme to get Liz noticed by Michael so she can have her magical prom moment, she’s shocked to discover that she likes being around Wes. And as they continue to grow closer, she must reexamine everything she thought she knew about love and rethink her own ideas of what Happily Ever After should look like.

Two love sceptics agree to work together as professional wedding disruptors. But fate has more romantic plans in mind for them . . .

When Sophie finds out right before getting married that she’s been cheated on (again!) it’s time for drastic action. Instead of calling the wedding off, she hires a gorgeous stranger – Max – to interrupt the ceremony and confront her fiancé.


It’s hardly the wedding she’d planned. But Sophie enjoys taking revenge. So, when Max asks if she’ll work with him to help others expose their cheating partners, Sophie agrees.

When they’re hired by a man who’s marrying the girl that once broke Max’s heart, Sophie expects Max to revel in the job. But instead, he seems to be wrestling with his feelings for his ex. And worse than that, Sophie is jealous . . .
