shubhthakkar 's review for:
Intermezzo
by Sally Rooney
this book gutted me - wasn’t a fan of the other sally rooney books I’ve read but it’s cool seeing her writing mature over time
“Sometimes you need people to be perfect and they can’t be and you hate them forever for not being even though it isn’t their fault and it’s not yours either. You just needed something they didn’t have in them to give you. And then in other people’s lives you do the same thing, you’re the person who lets everyone down, who fails to make anything better, and you hate yourself so much you wish you were dead.”
