type
- Book
It’s a setup the cynical narrators of Which Brings Me to You would roll their eyes at: Jane and John trade witty barbs at a wedding, make out in the coatroom, but pull back before sex — then vow to trade letters confessing their past romantic misdeeds before going further. And that’s why the whole thing works. The constant mix of sweet and sour, of heart-swelling romance and smart-ass banter is the official language of Modern Urban Singledom. The best-selling author duo of Steve Almond and Julianna Baggot (he of Candyfreak, she of Girl Talk) make fine use of the epistolary form — with a few funny postal mishaps lending a hip meta touch. Their couple’s distinct voices and push-pull dynamic are terrifically engaging.
