actually i liked this book a lot more than i thought i would. i think culturally we give connell as a character too much slack, sometimes he is a bit of an arse. but it’s a highly relatable and astute story about modern day relationships and their complications. does connell actually go to new york? i think he does. i hope they both move on and find someone else who can make them happy and can look back on each other as people who helped them both grow.

The title is pretty much self explanatory. I can’t tell to what extent I enjoyed this book, but it certainly made me think a lot. Check content warnings for sure!!

A tale as old as time. Two people meet, (do they fall in love?) they continue to have an on off relationship. The just can’t seem to be without eachother. Together they grow and become individuals. I would definitely not call this a romance book, I mean yeah they were kind of romantically involved and also sexually, but it is more about their relationship and it’s dynamic than love goey. As someone who has also read conversations with friends, cwf is better, when you go into this book expecting romance, so don’t do that. Would I this book sad? No. And you should totally be okey with this no quotation marks thing sally Rooney has going on. It was till enjoyable and I read this book quite quickly even tho I did not want to read books this month
