Coming in 2024 from Rainbow Rowell, the #1 New York Times bestselling author of Eleanor & Park, a novel of love and true friendship
'SEXY, SWEET, WISE AND NOSTALGIC - JANE AUSTEN'S PERSUASION FOR OUR TIMES' GABRIELLE ZEVIN
'A GORGEOUS book . . . a beautiful, believable love story between two slightly broken people. So SWEET, but never sentimental. I YEARNED for them to be happy and I miss it now it's over' MARIAN KEYES
'Deeply human, profoundly romantic. Rowell will break your heart and you'll thank her for it' LEIGH BARDUGO
----
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 . . . I loved every page of Slow Dance, a book that is romantic to its core, and as funny and smart as its wonderful characters' EMMA STRAUB
'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
'A powerful and poignant tale of first love . . . Rich, real, and emotionally raw, this satisfying contemporary is sure to impress' PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
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

If you are not satisfied with your order in any way, get in touch. We have an excellent customer service record and we will do our best to ensure you are pleased with your purchase.
📄 Exercise Your Right of Withdrawal
Under EU consumer law, you have the right to withdraw from your purchase within 14 days of receiving your order, without giving a reason. To formally exercise this right, use the button below. This is a distinct function separate from our general returns process.
Your right to cancel
If you order online, you have the right to cancel your order within 14 days of receiving your goods, without giving a reason. This cooling-off period runs from the day you (or someone you nominate) receives the last item in your order. To cancel, contact us at shop@theirishbookshop.live stating your order number and your wish to withdraw from the purchase. Once we've confirmed your cancellation, you have 14 days to send the goods back to us.

You'll also need your receipt or proof of purchase. If your return is based on the item's condition on arrival, please include a photo so we can advise the best resolution.
Faulty or damaged items
Please inspect your order on arrival and contact us immediately if an item is defective, damaged, or not what you ordered. Separately from the 14-day cancellation right above, you're entitled to a repair, replacement or refund on faulty goods for up to two years from purchase, under standard consumer guarantee rights.
