The book is actually about Eileen, I wish there was more about Alice who it is supposedly equally about, Simon is there, Felix is my least favorite character and oh how I love him the most (in the end). This is the first book I’ve ever read that genuinely feels set in the modern world (not that I’ve tried) and the only thing that threw me was the spelling if yogurt with an H. I like this book an awful lot. It’s done its job at being an excellent, thoughtful, enjoyable, relatable book.
