In this epistolary novel set in the early 1980s, best friends Scott and Cath describe their first year out of high school. He's an aspiring rock musician working in his dad's clothing store; she's navigating freshman year of college. Readers may find the format and setting distancing, but they'll enjoy Scott and Cath's easy flirtation and root for them during tough times.
