I really wanted to like this book. It was sweet and I liked the characters, I really saw them. But I just found the entire plot dragged on way too long. Slow burn for a disappointing ending with strings left untied.

Very good story, heartharming. The

bullying towards Eleanor, and the obscene notes towards her from Richie

are kinda messed up, I think they're handled in a very mature way. Although I wish it included things as an index, tw's, a list of resources for

domestic abuse

, and overall more work on the structure. This issues are probably edditiorial mistakes/faults, instead of actual content, so I enjoyed it a lot.

In summary,  Eleanor & Park is a heartwarming, yet mature and dark romantic artwork.


P. D. I read the Spanish Physical edition.

very enjoyable read, the ending made me mad, and I wasn't a major fan of Eleanor, but overall, very good book.
