Ugh. Am i meant to be sold on Nino? IM WORRIED

As happy as I am that Lenu is leaving Pietro, I hate that it is for Nino. Nino, Nino, Nino.

I think this may be the most moving book I’ve ever read in terms of articulating what it means to be a woman

“Maybe, I thought, I’ve given too much weight to the cultivated use of reason, to good reading, to well controlled language, to political affiliation; maybe, in the face of abandonment, we are all the same; maybe not even an orderly mind can endure the discovery of not being loved.”

Ooooo I liked this one! I mean, I like them all, but I found this one very intriguing. Some of the middle parts were a little boring, but oh man that ending! I love that this series just flows from one book to the next and seamlessly references long-ago events from the previous books. And my new favorite word for the narrator to say is "child." On to the next!

LENU HAVE YOU LEARNED NOTHING!! I still love you tho girl

Liked all three EF books so far - but each gets better and I look forward to reading the last one.
