Square Dance Saga
When middle-aged couple Reggie and Abbie Bartlett moved to a new town, they found themselves in need of exercise and a little excitement. Intrigued by a classified ad for square dance lessons, they sign up. As they progress from beginners to “official” square dancers, they get much more than they bargained for.
Follow the zany adventures of the couple and their interesting new friends, including one tenacious lady who insists on tackling the male and female parts of the dances, even though she can’t get through one dance without breaking down the square and one cantankerous old codger who enjoys speaking his mind, no matter who he’s insulting.

Read before buying for square dancing friend. I found the style irritating but it did make me smile and reminded me of country dancing days.

The reader is informed about the technicalities of square dancing at the beginning of the book and this sets the scene for the story.
Abbie and Reggie take up square dancing and this book tells the story of their journey, the clubs they join and the dancers and teachers they meet. There are some great characters and, for me, as this book is billed as fiction, I would have enjoyed more stories about the relationships between the dancers, rather than what felt like the recounting of facts.
I did enjoy this book. Though it reads more like non-fiction, I was swept back forty years to learning square dancing in a local church hall, where children and adults (and a cracking caller) had fun and laughed a lot together.

His short story is a fun fictional look at square dancing and the characters drawn to this form of dancing
This book is good fun and I really enjoyed reading about the one person always breaking up the square. The guy in the wheelchair. In all. The characters made this an especially fun read.
