Funny story was on my list but I didn’t get to it. Holiday Trap sounds like another good one.

i really enjoyed The Lost Daughter and I think her shorter fiction is so powerful and raw, and so different from the more drawn-out style of the Neapolitan books. But she's almost always so good.

This was my first Ferrante, believe it or not, and I’m intrigued enough to go back for more.

I really enjoyed Funny Story. I think it'll make my honorable mentions list too -- I didn't love it as much as some of her others, but even "pretty good" Emily Henry is pretty great.
