"The New York Times once called Rainbow Rowell \""talented enough to be uncategorizable.\"" She writes novels, comics, short stories . . . She's a #1 New York Times bestseller several times over, wrote an Indies Choice Book of the Year, and is a three-time Goodreads Choice Award winner. The thread that runs through all Rowell's work is her sunlit, knife-sharp empathy and unflagging sense of humor. She writes about life - and usually love - in a way that feels painfully, wonderfully real. Visit rainbowrowell.com to learn more."
‘A powerful and poignant tale of first love . . . Rich, real, and emotionally raw, this satisfying contemporary is sure to impress’ * Publishers Weekly * Who can deny the absolute, dizzy pleasure of loving a novel so much that you cannot bear to put it down, that you want to do nothing but keep flipping pages, that you want to immerse yourself fully and not come up for air until you are finished. I read Slow Dance in just that way, breathless and weeping. There is no one better than Rainbow at creating flawed, deeply human people. I loved every page of Slow Dance, a book that is romantic to its core, and as funny and smart as its wonderful characters. I will miss being in this world. * Emma Straub * Deeply human, profoundly romantic. Rowell tackles the challenges of love lost and rediscovered with nuance and candor. She will break your heart and you’ll thank her for it * Leigh Bardugo * 'A will-they, won't-they second chance romance for the ages, this one is poised to be one of summer's breakout hits' * People * Praise for Rainbow Rowell * - * Rowell is talented enough to be uncategorizable * New York Times * Cracking, laugh-out-loud dialogue, characters that feel painfully real -- Jodi Picoult * - * Reminded me not just what it's like to be young and in love with a girl, but also what it's like to be young and in love with a book -- John Green * - * A breathless, achingly good read about love and outsiders -- Stephanie Perkins * - * This sexy, smart, tender romance thrums with punk rock and true love. Teen readers--not to mention their Gen X parents--will swoon -- Gayle Foreman * - * Sweet, gritty and affecting...an unforgettable story about two misfits in love -- Courtney Summers * - * Rowell shows us the beauty in the broken -- Stewart Lewis * - * Reading [Rainbow Rowell's] work feels like listening to your hilariously insightful best friend tell her best stories * Library Journal * Rowell is, as always, a fluent and enjoyable writer--the pages whip by * Publishers Weekly * Keen psychological insight and irrepressible humor * Time * The dialogue flows naturally; it's zippy, funny, and fresh * Boston Globe * A joy from sentence to sentence, and on that intimate level there's absolutely nothing unoriginal or clichéd in the way Rowell thinks. Her work is dense with moments of sharp observation...and humor * Chicago Tribune *
