Awwwww!

This is one of the good ones! I read Slow Dance by Rainbow Rowell a while ago and it just landed in our book mail again and we are HERE FOR IT!!!! We often pass on all of the amazing books we receive, after we read them of course, to other book lovers. So now that we get the chance to reread this one?!? Yay!

Now if you are anything like me, once you finish a book you kind of forget a lot of the details. So when I started rereading this one it was just as good as the first time! Some of it was familiar but some of it felt brand new!

Here’s the synopsis:

“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.”

…I think we’ll keep this one for future re-rereads  It’s just too good! Thank you @harpercollins for gifting us this book!
