i ach, ten pięknie zachowany balans między rozmyślaniami i refleksjami o rzeczach wielkich, a wątkami relacyjnymi i zawiłościami codzienności, które czasem aż przyćmiewają obraz wszystkiego poza nimi.
i mimo wszystko, smutny obraz współczesnych 30-latków mi się z tego wyłania - bardzo pogubionych, czujących, że zmarnowali życie. ważne dla mnie w kontekście mojego rozumienia świata
Graphic: Sexual content
Moderate: Suicidal thoughts
Minor: Vomit

The main characters were boring, the very long emails (beauty? Jesus? bronze age???) were unnecessarily pseudo-deep and don't get me started on the many many many sex scenes that did not bring anything to the story!
I'm a big fan of Conversations with friends and liked normal people very much, but this story lacked the rawness and the effortless flow that I loved so much about Rooney's other novels.

Moderate: Drug use, Alcohol, Injury/Injury detail, Cursing, and Blood
