Starting out the book, I found Eleanor’s perspective delightfully charming. It was easy to be empathetic towards her. The audiobook narrator captured the quirkiness of the characters very well. As the book evolved, learning more about Eleanor and the tragedy of her life, made you love her even more. This is a fantastic book that is both funny and lighthearted while at times also sad, motivating, and profound. The fact that I had so many emotions while reading show just how moving this book is. I loved it.
