I normally love Sally Rooney but this  book just made me so mad, frustrated and so many other things. It’s messy but almost too much so where the self loathing overtakes. Maybe listening to her books as audiobooks has kinda thrown off my perception of her writing but this wasn’t an enjoyable read for me at all.
