I am 20 and feeling lost, and this book just felt like a small peak into my life, like, literally, a conversation I would have with your friends. I love how Sally Rooney exposes complicated feelings and emotions that feel so mixed and real. Racial and socio-economical issues are also present in a way that does not feel like they are being forced into the plot, but they are part of the characters, and affect them.
I have absolutely devoured it. Emotionally, not that many books make me feel that many things.
