I genuinely have never cried over a book before this one. 4 hours of reading and I feel less alone in the world. Others understand depression and worded it perfectly. This book is bound to be a modern classic.

Couldn’t put this down the writing style and story telling is captivating. However a very hopeless sad book.

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
