i was kinda disappointed. way to much about elios dad and I found out andré aciman is a pedophile and that makes me view the love stories differently.

Okay so the first half of this book from Elios dad's (Sammy)'s perspective, was super uncomfortable and hard for me to get through. Even when it switched to Elio's perspective I do feel like the book got a lot better and enjoyable but the whole book still felt very prevented and uneasy, which should have been expected, so maybe that was my fault. Anyways, the book had a lot of quotes that stuck with me and was still a good book, either than the fact that every couple in this book has the same age difference between a parent and child, it was romantic and well written.
