I loved Normal People so this Sally Rooney book was a bit of disappointment. I also think there should have been more content warnings.

*this is a debut novel, so pacing and writing is different from NP and BWWAY.

Only thing I do have to mention negatively about this book, and Sally Rooney’s other works, is the negative portrayal and connotations behind kink and BDSM. I get it, it’s social/sexual commentary and I do think it’s valid, but that doesn’t make it any less harmful, shameful and sex negative.
