The plot was basic but didn't take away from the story. I think it was written well too, and isn't too long of a read.

While reading this book--I have to forget the age difference, specifically the way Elio is still seventeen and Oliver is twenty-four. When I am successful in this, I am overwhelmed by the beauty of this book: by the realness of crushing love, by the desire to, at once, be with and be the person you admire. Time and memory and sexuality and aging--existing in the repetition of life, waiting for the next step of the pattern to repeat itself. This book is life-changing, certainly, even as it challenges me. (Which is maybe the best kind of book?)

Minor: Rape

The book could’ve been perfectly normal, had the Elio been 20 or 21 years old instead of 17. I guess this book shows how easily someone can be groomed, but I truly don’t think the “age gap” was a necessary contribution to the story. A 17 year old boy being preyed on by a 24 year old man is not an age gap, it’s grooming and pedophilia. Hard pass.
