People Collide by Isle McElroy

emotional reflective fast-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? Yes
Eli & Elizabeth are a newly married-for-convenience pair of writers. Elizabeth is a child of artists & Eli is from New Jersey. At the opening, Elizabeth has a teaching fellowship in Bulgaria and Eli, a former bartender, is along for the ride. However Eli realizes that somehow him and Elizabeth have swapped bodies and she (in his body) has disappeared.

This is the basic enough summary, but I wouldn’t recommend this book if you want action or sci-fi/spec fiction. It’s much more about the psychology of this couple (class differences, physical attraction, art) than anything else, however the dialogue and characterization is top notch!
