I love this book, I love how beautiful the writing is, I love how reflective the ending is, I love how it all comes full circle. Not a huge fan of their age gap. Also Elio fucking a peach and Oliver eating it. Does André Aciman have a foot fetish or something because the amount of times the word ‘foot’ was mentioned in only 248 pages is worrying. ‘Apricock’ made me giggle, Elio you little loser. He got so many hard on’s in the book it’s quite funny actually
