A review by emroberts92
Room on the Sea by André Aciman
4.0
I don’t typically read romance and lent this from a friend who finished it on a weekend break. Both characters were so likeable and the description of current staleness of real lives had me rooting for them.
I loved Monday - Thursday. The mystery, nuanced dialogue and the similarities between them in their personality and communication had me hooked.
Honestly, Friday ruined it for me. The conversation became way too open and obvious and was jarring in comparison to the first 4 chapters. I know the ending still remained open to interpretation but I felt it could have been more open to interpretation in line with the rest of the book.
That said, it was a beautiful and poetic read. Did it all in one sitting and thoroughly enjoyed it overall.
