Eleanor Oliphant Is Completely Fine by Gail Honeyman

4.0

Wow!!! I loved this novel. When I first started it...I wasn't sure I liked Eleanor Oliphant very much...but as I continued...I began to laugh with her, cry with her and cheer her on. She is one severely damaged girl...emotionally and physically abused by her mother and later by her first boyfriend....She has hardly any human contact and finds a lot of solace in a vodka bottle....her weekly talks with her mum can send her into a tailspin......how she overcomes it all....and it works out in the end is a joy to read....My only regret is this is not the book that I picked for my book club read this year.....I think it would have lead to great discussions....sigh....Read the book!
