3.6 out of 5 stars 12 ratings

Angie was a 90s girl with it all figured out, but after a disastrous marriage, she's not sure she knows how--or where--to find the right guy. A crash while roller skating lands her in the arms of Owen, a sweet and handsome forty-something widower. As the soundtrack of her high school years plays in the background, flirtation leads to what feels like a real connection. Can Angie trust her heart enough to move on and make a new soundtrack to her life?

Tracy Krimmer is fueled by an unstoppable combination of coffee, naps, and an undying admiration for dogs.

Forever stuck in the mesmerizing realms of the 80s and 90s, she’s armed with scrunchies, 4-color pens, and an inexplicable knack for quoting Seinfeld. Despite what the youngsters might think, Tracy is not a boomer—she's simply a connoisseur of the most rad decades to grace our existence.

When she's not reliving the glory days of yore, you can find Tracy crafting stories that capture the essence of those unforgettable eras. She weaves words like a master mixtape, blending humor, heart, and a sprinkle of that magical 90s dust into each and every page. So buckle up, get ready for a joyous ride, and join Tracy on a journey where coffee flows freely, naps are sacred, and the dog videos are abundant!

    I loved this short story! I remember roller skating at the rink as a teen, the slow skate, lights low and music playing. This evoked a strong sense of nostalgia and had a sweet little romance too. Highly recommend.

    I really enjoyed reading this short story. It was very relatable. Perfect summer read. Any time, really. Any one who made mix tapes in the 90s (or 80s, lol) will appreciate this little nugget.

    I read this short story as part of an anthology and loved it. Tracy Krimmer has become an auto buy author for me and I've devoured everything of hers that I could find. This story was sweet and took me back to my teenage years of recording mixed tapes from the radio. I didn't get to the rink often, but I spent many an afternoon rollerskating up and down my driveway.

    Nice, sweet turning point in the main character's life set in one of my favorite places for a story--a roller skating rink. Fine writing with a good sense of real emotion. Writers are told to use the five senses. This story truly uses the audio sense in fun ways, reminding us of the music of the nineties.

    Mixtapes and Rollerskates is a short story for all those who know the 90s well. Angie is recently divorced. Owen has been a widow for a few years. Angie and Owen literally bump into each other at the skating rink for a charity event and get talking.
    I feel like if I was to belong in any decade in the past century it would be the 90s. I was a 90s baby so my memories are of the good cartoons and Spice Girls (I was a huge fan). In fact my favourite genre of music is the 90s punk and grunge! So naturally I loved this story. It was so cute! There was love after loss, new beginnings and hope! Falling in love no matter how old is just as exciting as the first time!
