En fruktansvärt vacker bok, en smekning, en italiensk sommarbris.
Många meningar har strukits under. Måste säga att jag känner igen en stor del av mig själv i Elio, som att en skärva av hans tankar en gång varit mina tankar.
Jag har saknat att läsa såhär. Att tänka såhär, liksom poesi. Vackert rakt igenom!

This was wonderfully intense and emotional. It had a really palpable tension between the two men, and I was captivated by Oliver's carefree mask as much as by Elio's obsession. I think I especially enjoyed their time in Rome, because they still participated in the world around them. They didn't refuse all other company/experiences.

my feelings for this book are complicated. i don't see this as a love story but i like the theme of longing and yearning. i feel like they didn't really know each other tho which makes it hard to call it a tragic love story

It took me forever to read this book and now I finally read it, I must say it’s an okay read for me as someone who watched the movie first before reading it. I might admit that the book was better in terms of the ending. I got bored reading some parts of the book though. What I like was the aesthetics of the place and the vivid moments Elio and Oliver had. I’m very intrigued in reading the next book.
