This is my favourite release from Sally Rooney yet. The way this is written gives so much yet leaves so much for interpretation, and her magic with describing emotional complexities we all feel is just amazing. This book is funny, dark, sexy, reflective and a great commentary on the state of the world.

A nice, easy to listen to audiobook. I found myself surprised by the significant number of emails in the book but I absolutely loved it. I’m a big fan of epistolary novels so loving this wasn’t a very far stretch for me. The dynamic between Simon and Eileen was a bit strange for me but the way these characters acknowledge the age gap/power dynamic in the story felt genuine. Felix was most definitely my favorite character in the story. His short, funny manner mixed with his indifferent queerness made me want to see more of him. If Sally Rooney wrote a story about Felix I would read it in a heartbeat.
