<p><strong>A REESE’S BOOK CLUB PICK</strong></p><p><strong>AN INSTANT <em>NEW YORK TIMES </em>BESTSELLER</strong></p><p><strong>From #1 <em>New York Times </em>bestselling author Rainbow Rowell comes <em>Slow Dance—</em>her smartest, funniest, most <em>powerful</em> novel yet </strong></p><p><strong>“If you, like me, think thirty-somethings methodically working through their issues is very hot, <em>Slow Dance</em> is the book for you. The people in it feel like people you know or maybe even people you’ve been. <em>Slow Dance</em> is sexy, sweet, wise, and nostalgic—Jane Austen’s <em>Persuasion</em> for our times.”</strong></p><p><strong> — Gabrielle Zevin, <em>New York Times </em>bestselling author of <em>Tomorrow, and Tomorrow, and Tomorrow</em></strong></p><p>Shiloh Butler was supposed to get out of north Omaha.</p><p>She used to sit out on the front porch with her best friend, Cary, and plot their escape.

She hasn’t spoken to him in fourteen years.</p><p>When Shiloh gets an invitation to a high school friend’s wedding, Cary is the first and only thing on her mind.</p><p>She desperately wants to see him again, but she doesn’t know if she can bear being seen <em>by</em> 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.</p><p>Would Cary even <em>want</em> to see Shiloh after all this time? After <em>everything</em>?</p><p>The answer, it turns out, is yes.</p><p>In her triumphant return to adult fiction, Rainbow Rowell has written a love story so honest and human – so <em>cathartic</em> – you’ll feel it in your bones. <em>Slow Dance</em> is as sharp and compassionate as you’d expect from Rowell.
