Eleanor Oliphant is fine, living a narrow existence filled with routine and hiding from the truth of her past with copious vodka. But a few small things change and suddenly her life is snowballing

This book is a true lesson in kindness / learning to appreciate “the little things” that make for a good life. May we all be the Raymonds and Sammys and Bobs and Lauras the Eleanors we come across need.

Felt a bit slow to get into at first, but I thoroughly enjoyed the plot - and was pleasantly surprised it’s based in Scotland!

While a moving and entertaining read, it feels as though twists could have been better delivered and beats better fleshed out/explored.
