The main character was socially awkward from the start and somewhat unlikable. She had an abusive childhood and has a toxic relationship with her mother. As the story goes on, it seems like Eleanor may have autism, though it never outright says that. In the end, the story was worth the read.

4.0

This was the story of an autistic woman dealing with adulthood and reflecting on her past. The first half of the book is friendly and sweet. The second half takes on a darker tone, but I honestly got more out of it. The main character makes you grateful to not be normal and I laughed quite a bit.
