Here, Elena and Lila’a relationship expands, grows ever more complicated and rich. I am impressed at how Ferrante effortlessly reaches the core of the feelings that drive the two, universal feelings of love and the need to be loved, insecurity, jealousy. For me, these books demand to be read all at once, and after another—Ferrante wields the gravity of these feelings in ways both expansive and attentive to the characters, that sweeps the reader up, too.

3 ⭐️ reading this series of novels feels somewhat like watching a teen drama tv show like gossip girl. the plot is a huge engrossing web, there is so much going on at all times, the interpersonal relationships are incredibly complicated and you won’t be able to like or root for a certain character for more than two chapters in a row. at times it’s fun, sometimes you’re just frustrated because everyone is being nasty to each other 85% of the book. the characters’ actions definitely evoke that “oh no don’t go into this scary dark basement” feeling you get while watching a horror movie. all that being said, i need to find out what happens next. honestly have mixed feelings about this series because i don’t Love the writing or any of the characters, but i am so invested in the plot at this point that i can’t abandon the series.

Ok ce livre était un sacré voyage. Il s’est passé tellement de choses et on voit tout les personnages grandir et évoluer si rapidement. J’aurais jamais pu deviner la vie de qui irait dans quelle direction. La vie des personnages continue de s’entrecroiser et de se distancer, ce qui était vraiment hot à suivre.
