Find Me by André Aciman

2.0

If you loved Call My By Your Name, and cherish it, please do not read this book. The thing that made CMBYN so powerful was how perfectly it captured first, lost love and the fleeting memories that love provided. It was a perfectly crafted momentary bildungsroman, in my opinion. The book unfortunately takes away from CMBYN, stretching out what was presented to us as a moment into a lifetime. Unfortunately, it feels counterintuitive and contradictory in this way. I also did not like some story and plot choices. I cried reading it, as to be expected, and it did make me feel something by the end, but I can't help but feel overall let down.

Allow CMBYN to exist on its own, and be the powerful force that it is.
