A review by burningupasun
Eleanor & Park by Rainbow Rowell

3.0

It drew me in a little, mostly because I'm a sucker for love stories. That said, this is DEFINITELY a teen love story and there were quite a few points where I was like 'oh right, insta-teen love, hoo boy' lol. Also there is some... decided awkwardness with the "diversity" attempts by the author that mostly just feel like box ticking but also occasionally verge on racism. It's just weird. But it's still not a bad book in the long run, it did make me feel things.

Would have made me BAWL MY EYES OUT as a teen for sure.
