The narration was outstanding.  I loved listening to this story.  It perfectly captures the feelings of first love and the lust that goes with it.  I didn't listen to Part Four but read it instead.  And I'm so glad that I did.  It gutted me, and if I'd been listening to it in the car (my usual place for audiobooks), I wouldn't have been able to see through the tears.

Wow.. this was gross in multiple parts.  Elio compared the peach to a SA victim🧐 I’m glad the film cut out the problematic bits. This book just felt like the author writing down his weird fetishes 
The movie overall is better and this book just felt creepy and the author is a self proclaimed pedophile so take that as you will
