All the reviews I read are mostly exasperated and unsatisfied.

Well not me.

Heads up people, you don't get happy endings, in real life.

I found this book to be exquisite (well, that goes for all of Aciman's work) , and above all, realistic.

Surely that's something to fall in love with.

The writing is R-rated John Green and the plot feels like fanfic for the majority of the book

Este livro é a continuação do livro "Chama-me Pelo Teu Nome" que fala sobre Élio, Oliver e Samuel.
Neste livro podemos ver como as férias de verão ainda estão muito presentes em Élio e Oliver, mesmo que ambos tenham seguido caminhos diferentes.

Já Samuel decidiu por fim a um casamento infeliz, por causa de uma revelação que teve com Élio e segue para Roma para se encontrar com ele, que agora é um talentoso pianista, mas durante essa viagem conhece alguém que lhe desperta interesse, coisa que ele nunca pensou a voltar a sentir por alguém.

O tão reencontro entre Élio e Oliver é um sentimento estranho, pois o amor que ambos sentem um por o outro ainda não acabou, mas não passa apenas disso e agora só lhes resta as lembranças dos dias que passaram juntos e felizes.

Rough and uninteresting start from Elio's father's POV but once we got some chapters dedicated to others lives and perspectives I felt much more interested in the narrative. It was all rather more cerebral than I remember CMBYN being but that's not necessarily a complaint. Still, this narrative felt a bit more fluid which had its pros and cons. The ending I thought was really sweet and I felt that this book had a rather nice organic feel to its characters despite their occasionally overly "galaxy brain" monologues. Fun book but not as memorable as CMBYN. I feel like some characters were just stepping stones to the conclusion and the first chapter felt rather unnecessary imo.

Welp, I tried...
I don't even understand what happened between the first and second book. I could have forgiven the plotline about the father if it wasn't 100 pages of a 260 page book!
I won't deny that the writing is well done, but having the read schlog through this seemingly unimportant story just to get to Elio and Oliver, no ma'am. 
Sorry to this man...
