The Rest of Us (2013)
This is a story about a couple who attempt to rekindle their rather intense relationship which occurred fifteen years earlier when Terry was a student and Rhinehart was her professor. After reading Rhinehart's online obituary, Terry is shocked to bump into him while shopping and their friendship takes on a life of its own. This story was a very emotional one and I went through a range of emotions - joy, frustration, confusion and sadness. The setting of the story and the personalities of the characters were well thought-out, I felt this novel had a classic quality. It questions choices we make in our lives, both when we are young and old enough to know better, the pull of family and our need to know our past and how it translates to the present. It is not what I would call a light read - but well worth the effort. (KARM)
