This book spoke to me and wove itself into my soul in a way I had forgotten an amazing book can do. I think I’m gonna start calling this phenomenon soul books. These are books I’m terrified to finish— a life I’m scared to let go of. I want to collect each and every one of these characters and crush them in big bear hugs. I want to cry with them about the lifetime of shit we’ve gone through together over 400 pages. It feels like I’ve known them longer than the 5 days it took for me to inhale this. The highs the lows the heartbreak the excitement and joy were just communicated so well to me and my soul. I love the way Casey McQuiston handles dialogue. I enjoy the characters’ relatable and humorous banter. I love the imagery. I adore sense nostalgia that they tuck around the edges. I am excited by the high energy moments and thoughtful in the moments of quiet simplicity. It may not be everyone cup of tea, but it feels like it was made just right for me.
If Casey McQuiston has one fan, I am that one.
