NOMINERAD TILL ÅRETS BOK 2025.
”varmt, roligt, vemodigt, klokt och väldigt underhållande” Ingalill Mosander, Senioren
”Keyesläsare får sitt lystmäte av oneliners, samhällskritik, kärlek, humor och människokännedom.” M-Magasin
Anna lever det perfekta livet. Hon har en lägenhet i New York, en tillgiven (för tillgiven?) pojkvän och ett glassigt PR-jobb i skönhetsbranschen. Vem skulle inte vilja ha det livet? Anna, visar det sig. För hon har tröttnat på staden som en gång tog henne med storm.
Efter en mindre medelålderskris bestämmer hon sig för att flytta tillbaka till Irland och får till slut ett tillfälligt jobb som PR-ansvarig på ett exklusivt spa vid kusten. Det låter kanske enkelt, men det visar sig vara mer utmanande än hon hade väntat sig eftersom lokalborna hatar stället. Så pass mycket att det har förekommit både våld och hotelser.
Men har man arbetat länge i skönhetsindustrin, som Anna, har man sett och upplevt det mesta. Tills hon inser att flytten från New York inte per automatik innebär att hon har flytt från sitt eget förflutna. Det är mänskligt att begå misstag, men hur gör man för att slippa upprepa samma misstag om och om igen?

"När Marian Keyes berättar om beroende känner jag igen nästan allt. Hur njutningen är så stark att det bara inte går att låta bli, och hur hjärnan i vissa lägen på något sätt kopplar bort förnuftet helt." Lotta Olsson, DN
"Feelgood i kubik." Aftonbladet
"Perfekt mysläsning i soffhörnet" Expressen
För tjugo år sedan var Rachel Walshs tillvaro en enda röra. Men ett livsavgörande beslut fick livet att ta en helt ny riktning och nu har hon ett tryggt arbete som behandlingsterapeut, radhus, trädgård och en ny pojkvän. Plus en bullrig familj som inte drar sig för att lägga sig i minsta beslut.
När Rachel får ett oväntat samtal skakas hennes trygga tillvaro om rejält. Plötsligt står hon öga mot öga med sitt livs kärlek. Hon, som trodde att allt gick enligt plan och skulle fortsätta att göra det för alltid, inser att det inte spelar någon roll hur gammal man är, livet kan alltid förändras och ta nya, oväntade vändningar.
Ett oväntat val är den efterlängtade uppföljaren till romanen En oväntad semester.

Prada-wearing magazine editor Lisa Edwards thinks her life is over when her ''fabulous'' new job turns out to be deportation to Dublin, launching Colleen magazine. No more jet-setting to the Fall Collections? No more fabulous parties and photos in the society pages? The only saving grace is that her friends aren''t there to witness her downward spiral. Might her new boss, the disheveled and moody Jack Devine, save her from a fate worse than hell?
Ashling Kennedy, Colleen''s assistant editor, is an award–winning worrier, increasingly aware that something fundamental is missing from her life -- apart from a boyfriend and a waistline. And then there''s her closest, oldest friend Clodagh ''Princess'' Kelly, who is apparently living the domestic dream in a suburban castle. So why, lately, has Clodagh had a recurring urge to kiss a frog -- sleep with a frog, if truth be told?

Marian Keyes has introduced readers to the lives, loves, and foibles of the five Walsh sisters. In this funny, heartbreaking, and triumphant new tale set in the Big Apple, it''s Anna''s turn in the spotlight.
Life is perfect for Anna Walsh. She has the ""Best Job in the World"" as a PR exec for a top-selling urban beauty brand, a lovely apartment in New York, and a perfect husband -- the love of her life, Aidan Maddox. Until the morning she wakes up in her mammy''s living room in Dublin with her face in stitches, a dislocated knee, and completely smashed-up hands -- and no memory of how she got there. While her mammy plays nursemaid, Anna tries to get better and keeps wondering why Aidan won''t return her phone calls or emails.
Recuperating from her injuries, a mystified Anna returns to Manhattan. Slowly beginning to remember what happened, she sets off on a search to find Aidan -- a hilarious quest involving lilies (she can''t stop smelling them), psychics, mediums, and anyone there who can promise her a reunion with her beloved...
Written in her classic style, marrying the darker parts of life with humor and wit, Anybody Out There? is Marian Keyes'' best novel to date, wonderfully charming look at love here and ever after.

Ireland''s debonair politician Paddy de Courcy—the "John F. Kennedy Jr. of Dublin"—has captured tabloid headlines and the imagination of his country with his charm and charisma. But the crushed hearts he''s left behind him reveal more about his character than his winning, votegetting smile. Lola, Grace, Marnie, and Alicia have all suffered from his selfishness and cruelty. But with Paddy''s political star ascending, the time is finally ripe for redemption . . . and perhaps a bit of revenge.

February the fifteenth is a very special day for me. It is the day I gave birth to my first child. It is also the day my husband left me...I can only assume the two events weren''t entirely unrelated.
Claire has everything she ever wanted: a husband she adores, a great apartment, a good job. Then, on the day she gives birth to their first baby, James informs her that he''s leaving her. Claire is left with a newborn daughter, a broken heart, and a postpartum body that she can hardly bear to look at.
She decides to go home to Dublin. And there, sheltered by the love of a quirky family, she gets better. So much so, in fact, that when James slithers back into her life, he''s in for a bit of a surprise.

The fast lane is much too slow for Rachel Walsh. And Manhattan is the perfect place for a young Irish female to overdo everything. But Rachel''s love of a good time is about to land her in the emergency room. It will also cost her a job and the boyfriend she adores.
When her loving family hustles her back home and checks her into Ireland''s answer to the Betty Ford Clinic, Rachel is hopeful. Perhaps it will be lovely—spa treatments, celebrities, that kind of thing. Instead, she finds a lot of group therapy, which leads her, against her will, to some important self-knowledge. She will also find something that all women like herself fear: a man who might actually be good for her.
