I would like to request that people not read the blurb summary of this book that I found on Amazon. It is far too long and detailed for such a concise work of prose. Even if Backman approved of how much of the story they’ve included there, I certainly do not. However, if you want to know my opinion of this beautifully constructed and thought-provoking novella, please read my review here – which will not give away hardly anything of the story, I promise!

This was a very sweet short-story/novella that follows the story of two friends who lose touch for ten years before meeting again at one of their businesses. They quickly fall back into the friends rolls they used to have and phone each other regularly, meet up whenever they're both in town and flirt with each other.

I really liked it for the romance aspect. It was sweetly sexy with the dancing and the drinking and the flirting and the ending had me smiling like a loony because it was cute.
