From award-winning, bestselling author David Levithan and beloved, acclaimed singer-songwriter Jens Lekman comes a charming, tender novel about an unlucky-in-love wedding singer trying to find the right words to save his relationship

J is an accidental wedding singer. Unlike most wedding singers, he writes an original song for every couple--his way of finding out about the small, strange things that brought them together and the hopeful, vulnerable feelings they're experiencing.

J's own love life is in a state of flux. His girlfriend is off to New York for work, and as her life grows bigger and busier without him in it, he finds it harder to stick to a happy tune. He doesn't know whether to encourage the soon-to-be-wed couples or warn them. When complications hit and love is tested, is there any way to sing through all the noise?

Combining David Levithan's deeply observant storytelling and Jens Lekman's inventive and touching original songs, Songs for Other People's Weddings is a tender, honest novel that tracks love through all its chord changes, never forgetting that the best songs contain the bitter and the sweet, the despair of losing it all and the euphoria of being found.

David Levithan is the author of numerous acclaimed novels, including The Lover's Dictionary, Every Day, Boy Meets Boy, and Two Boys Kissing. His other collaborations include Nick & Norah's Infinite Playlist with Rachel Cohn and Will Grayson, Will Grayson with John Green. He can often be found with headphones on, a devoted music listener . . . but it's safe to say that nobody will ever ask him to sing at a wedding.

Jens Lekman is a singer and songwriter from Sweden with several beloved albums such as Life Will See You Now, Night Falls Over Kortedala, and Oh You're So Silent Jens. He was once voted the fifteenth-sexiest man in Sweden by ELLE. Then he dropped down to number thirty-three, and since then he hasn't been included in their list. He works part-time as a wedding singer.
