Connell and Marianne pretend not to know each other at school although they are engaged in a heated physical relationship outside of school. Marianne is an odd ball, no real friends and always unwilling to conform. Connell is a popular jock with lots of friends. Somehow, they connect to each other and Marianne convinces Connell to attend college together. There, the tables have turned a bit. Connell is the outsider and Marianne has friends. But this book isn't really about their relationships with other people, it is about their relationship with each other. Their love affair comes and goes but there connection is solid. What does their future hold? Why do they belong to each other in a way like no others? I was entranced by this story and the audio version is very well done.
