In his forty-third year William Stoner learned what others, much younger, had learned before him: that the person one loves at first is not the person one loves at last, and that love is not an end but a process through which one person attempts to know another ❤️

I thought this was gonna be a book about chillin’ with your bros ripping crazy bowls and watching smiling friends, instead it’s one of the most harrowing books l’ve ever read and a new personal favourite. A perfect examination into the beauty of one life

A warm and easy read. A novel whose treatment of complex subjects with honesty and simplicity made me deeply attached to its characters.

A really good book. It was shocking how nothing particular interest happened yet it was the entire time I found interest in his mundane in life and his mistakes, and and how he was very stoic and how he looked at problems in his life didn’t let them affect him and continue to work and continue to do what he had to do. I thought it was cool. I thought that each sentence was beautifully written and for some explicable reason I had to keep reading I found so much enjoyment in It And in what his life was overall a good book I don’t know who I would recommend it to you or and I especially doubt that I’ll ever read it again however I’m very happy that I did read it very engaging, fairly thought-provoking and overall kind of sad. It was weird how he was far from my hero far from a villain. It’s plenty of things just went wrong. It worked hard things in a pan out. I feel like I can see this being a lot of people‘s lives. They want love and it’s held back from them. They don’t fight for their life for their future, and they kind of take a backseat in their own life and it shows because it absolutely did show. He grew up in a home without communication and continued on. He lived a lonely life and even more heartbreaking than at all is daughter continued to have a lonely and broken life. Nobody was happy around him and it wasn’t his fault that’s why they’re not happiness contributed to him and vice versa overall I’m very thought-provoking book. Very interesting book. I’m happy. I read it.
