About this Event

We are overjoyed to celebrate the newest publication by White Whale's beloved sapphic co-author sweethears, Rachael Lippincott and Alyson Derrick. Getting the girl was easy, but can Alex and Molly keep each other when they’re both keeping secrets? Find out Joy to the Girls, the cozy holiday novella companion to She Gets the Girl!

For Alex and Molly, the last three years have felt like Christmas every day. So what better way to celebrate winter break of their senior year than a romantic getaway in a town right out of a Christmas card?

Aside from sampling all the holiday cheer Barnwich has to offer, Alex and Molly have an important mission this weekend: to help their friend Cora get her crush to fall for her. But in between ice skating, snowball fights, and matchmaking schemes, it becomes obvious that Alex and Molly have another mission this weekend: to not reveal the huge secrets they’re keeping from the other. Secrets about their post-college plans that threaten to tear them apart.

Will these two be able to help Cora get the girl and keep theirs—or will this be the last Christmas of Alex and Molly’s love story?
