Slow Dance
Author(s): Rainbow Rowell
Romance | Identity - LGBTQIA+ / Queer
Coming in 2024 from Rainbow Rowell, the #1 New York Times bestselling author of Eleanor & Park, a novel of love and true friendship
Everybody thought Shiloh and Cary would end up together - everybody but Shiloh and Cary. Slow Dance follows these star-crossed best friends from their inseparable teen years on the wrong side of the tracks to their far-flung adulthoods - through her marriage and motherhood and his time in the Navy - as they try to work out what they're actually supposed to be to each other.
Told with Rowell's trademark sensitivity and abundant wit, Slow Dance is a big, beaming power ballad of a novel about a love so true, it refuses to be forgotten.
Who can deny the absolute, dizzy pleasure of loving a novel so much . . .
