Splendidly written, I really felt for Eleanor throughout the book. But it did feel rather slow and repetitive; slow in terms of how her story unfolded, repetitive in terms of her social awkwardness and explanations, and similar encounters. A wholesome book about friendship, love, and appreciating the little things.
