A REESE’S BOOK CLUB PICK AN INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER From #1 New York Times bestselling author Rainbow Rowell comes Slow Dance— her smartest funniest most powerful novel yet  “If you like me think thirty-somethings methodically working through their issues is very hot   Slow Dance  is the book for you. The people in it feel like people you know or maybe even people you’ve been.  Slow Dance  is sexy sweet wise and nostalgic—Jane Austen’s  Persuasion  for our times.”    — Gabrielle Zevin   New York Times  bestselling author of  Tomorrow and Tomorrow and Tomorrow Shiloh Butler was supposed to get out of north Omaha. She used to sit out on the front porch with her best friend Cary and plot their escape. Shiloh was going to be an actress – she had a scholarship to a good school – and Cary was laser-focused on the Navy. Sharp stoic golden-eyed Cary . . . thin as a stick of gum and poor as dirt. He was probably the most decent person Shiloh has ever known. She hasn’t spoken to him in fourteen years. When Shiloh gets an invitation to a high school friend’s wedding Cary is the first and only thing on her mind. She desperately wants to see him again but she doesn’t know if she can bear being seen by him. What would Cary think of Shiloh at thirty-three? A divorced mom living in the same house she grew up in. Someone who works behind a desk not onstage. Would Cary even want to see Shiloh after all this time? After everything ? The answer it turns out is yes. In her triumphant return to adult fiction Rainbow Rowell has written a love story so honest and human – so cathartic – you’ll feel it in your bones. Slow Dance is as sharp and compassionate as you’d expect from Rowell. Deeply profoundly romantic it’s a power ballad of a book.
