Love in an almost-town

Set on a winter night beneath the northern lights, *Almost, Maine* gathers a series of encounters in a place poised between Maine and Canada—and even between existing and not quite existing. Its residents experience love as something that can arrive, disappear, or shift in unexpected ways. The collection format makes the town itself the connecting thread, bringing together moments of heartbreak and discovery without centering the book on a single continuous romance. The result is a portrait of a community where questions of love play out across separate stories.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Teens and young adults interested in love-themed fiction.
  • Readers who enjoy short-story collections connected by a shared setting.
  • Readers curious about the play-derived *Almost, Maine*.

Book overview

Welcome to Almost, Maine, a place that's so far north, it's almost not in the United States. It's almost in Canada. And it's not quite a town, because its residents never got around to getting organized. So it almost doesn't exist. One cold, clear, winter night, as the northern lights hover in the star-filled sky above, the residents of Almost, Maine, find themselves falling in and out of love in unexpected and hilarious ways. Knees are bruised. Hearts are broken. But the bruises heal, and the hearts mend - almost - in this delightful midwinter night's dream.
