My first experience with Rooney. The lack of quotation marks annoyed me immensely but I would totally read a novel-length version of this. Will be looking into reading her other stuff.

— “my love for him felt so total and so annihilating that it was often impossible for me to see him clearly at all.”
this was so well layered and immersive for being such a short story, sally rooney truly is one of a kind.
