I can’t get over Sally Rooney’s writing style when it comes to dialogue and also just how unloveable she makes her characters. I feel like this book lowkey glorifies anorexia and glamorizes depression (but i could completely have a wrong take). 
Just wasn’t for me!

You peeps really have to start reading fanfiction so you don't glorify a badly written misscomunication trope.
