Fell in love, my favourite read of the year so far. I have to highlight that reading Eleanor's chapters were my favourite. The book was raw, emotional, funny and dark...heartbreaking yet beautiful.

Witty and just absolutely brilliant. A lovely story capturing the human experience, the inevitable heartbreaks that lead to the endless love you are also bound to recieve and show to yourself and finding solace in the knowledge that "wherever you are going,it is waiting for you" . 

 Coco mellors may you live an exceptionally good life because you've made mine better with this masterpiece. 

Ps. Can't wait for the tv series adaptation I'm screamingggg it's going to be so good
 (If not there's always the book hehehe)
