This is the third Sally Rooney book I’ve read and I’m a huge fan of her beautiful writing. This was a lovely story about friendship and love and everything in between. I was particularly enthralled by the discourse about the mundane qualities of life. I will say though that there were some slow points due to this but I was happy that it all came together at the end.

raises some cool points, but after normal people i realized that i simply dislike rooney’s protagonists. she writes these hierarchies where the “main guys” are intelligent but emotionally immature and depressed people, and the truly interesting people, the ones who know about life and the world within the confines of their own existence, are put aside. or called “freaks” for believing in god.
yeah, this all felt very surface level and bland but i liked it better than normal people so… yay?
