The Happy Couple
by Naoise Dolan
emotional
reflective
medium-paced
Plot or Character Driven:
Character
Strong character development:
Complicated
Loveable characters:
Complicated
Diverse cast of characters:
Yes
Flaws of characters a main focus:
Yes
Just love how Dolan writes messy, (almost) unlikable characters. and even though they were so messy, they were so relatable sometimes, maybe because that made them feel more real.
I think the ending of the book is also just perfect: the happy couple is happy not being a couple. Nice. And also nice that Luke and Archie did not end up together .
I think the ending of the book is also just perfect:
