There is nothing that boils the blood more than friction against your climate inclinations! It's incredibly dramatic and all the stakes are raised! Incredibly relatable and so much fun!

How important is cold when it's hot, and heat when it's cold? It's a matter of life and death, as Pittenger shows in these lovely, lovely vignettes that capture life when the A/C is on the fritz and the heater won't work, with couples intermingled all living in the same building. I was on board the moment Paul and Jane met on the fire escapes, and Pittenger's words never broke the spell. She gives us a glimpse at some of the most mundane, important parts of her characters' lives. So realistic you'll break a sweat/feel a chill.
