I’ve gotta give this 3 stars because it took me so long to get into it.
Eilis isn’t remarkable, she just seems to have good opportunities thrown her way.
Mind you, she ruins one of those as soon as she’s back in Brooklyn.
There were some random things that were never mentioned again. Take Eilis’ boss for example, there was that whole section of her coming across as being into Eilis when she’s trying on the swimsuits? It was uncomfortable.
Anyway, I did enjoy Colm’s style of writing and the story did pick up.
Wish it had gone longer so I could’ve seen what happened between her and Tony but I guess it leaves it to the imagination.
