The way Aciman writes really makes you feel all of the raw emotion of being 17 and experiencing your first real love again. There are moments when this book brought back memories and emotions that I had completely forgotten I had ever felt. It's a slow read and feels almost stream-of-consciousness in some areas, which is incredibly charming and oddly adds to the immersion.
