cuánto tardaré en olvidarlo: quién sabe, a lo mejor nunca
al comenzar el libro la verdad es que no conseguía mantener mi atención, el estilo de escritura es bastante particular y la ausencia de guiones o comillas en los diálogos hace que frecuentemente uno tenga que dar un paso atrás y releer lo anterior para entender bien las situaciones. aunque me interesaba el final del libro, no estaba enganchada como para continuar leyendo de inmediato. no obstante, al llegar más o menos a las 150 páginas comencé a cogerle cierto cariño a los personajes (aunque he de decir que tengo sentimientos encontrados con todos los personajes, lo cual me parece bastante realista) y fue entonces que empecé a sentirme más emocionalmente conectada al libro. al final, me ha dejado con una sensación de sentimientos atascados en el pecho y cualquier libro que me haga sentir de forma tan intensa se merece un espacio en mi vida. la relación entre Marianne y Connell es extremadamente compleja y, parándome a reflexionar, me parece fascinante cómo Sally Rooney ha conseguido crear este mundo y estos personajes tan torturados emocionalmente, sin llegar a perder la sensación de realismo. puede que no sea mi libro favorito, pero sin duda no voy a olvidarme de él fácilmente.

However, I do feel it was a little overhyped. It deserves the hype, but it's also a little pretentious (which I enjoyed, but some won't lol)
