Happy All the Time

Happy All the Time

Laurie Colwin

Enjoyment: Quality: Characters: Plot:

Guido and Vincent are childhood best friends—third cousins, really—living in Cambridge and dreaming about their futures. Guido plans to write poetry while Vincent feels confident he will win a Nobel prize for physics. When Guido spots Holly while exiting a museum, he can immediately sense that she will be difficult, quirky, and hard to live with. He loves her on sight. Vincent, open-minded and cheerful, meets Misty at work. Though she is a  bored and misanthropic brunette, he finds himself desperate to know her. Through courtship, jealousy, estrangement, and other perils, Happy All the Time follows four sane, intelligent, and good-intentioned people who manage to find love in spite of themselves. This 2021 reissue includes a new foreword by Katherine Heiny and cover art by Olivia McGiff. An alternative cover edition for this ASIN can be found here.
