I like how this novel dealt with the idea of loneliness. Eleanor is not exactly looking for a romantic companion she just wants a genuine connection with someone. I think that is something everyone wants. It’s such a simple human need but yet allowing oneself to open up enough to create a connection is the hardest part. This novel does this. Overall very good novel.
