Slow Dance by Rainbow Rowell

Rainbow can do no wrong and this new book proves it. Funny, tender and believable. I didn't want to leave Shiloh and Cary's world. Sweet and tender but not cloying. Romantic but so funny too. Massively recommend.





From the back


Back in high school, everybody thought Shiloh and Cary would end up together . . . everybody but Shiloh and Cary.


They were just friends. Best friends. They spent entire summers sitting on Shiloh’s porch steps, dreaming about the future. Shiloh was going to become an actress, and Cary was going to join the Navy. And nothing was ever going to change between them – Shiloh made him promise.


Well, Shiloh did go to college, and Cary did join the Navy. But, somehow, everything changed.


Now it’s been fourteen years since Shiloh last spoke to Cary. She’s been married and divorced. She has two kids. And she’s back in north Omaha living in the same house she grew up in. Her life is nothing like she planned.


When Shiloh gets invited to an old friend’s wedding, all she can think about is whether Cary will be there – and whether she hopes he will be.


Slow Dance is the story of two kids who fell in love before they knew enough about love to recognize it. And what will happen when they try to make their way back to each other.
