Now the world knows Baby, the character based on Cherry, better than Cherry knows herself - and Tom and Cherry have been separated for months. That's when Russ Sutton shows up. Floppy-haired, blue-eyed Russ Sutton, who Cherry had a crush on in college, and who now seems to have a crush on her. All that's left is for Cherry to rewrite her own story. Because if she isn't Baby, and she isn't Tom's wife, then who can she be? Told with deep tenderness and abundant wit, Cherry Baby is Rainbow Rowell's most affecting, most surprising, sexiest novel yet.
