A Separate Peace by John Knowles
5.0

I read this in a whirlwind yesterday, reading it all the way through. I’ve thought about it since and that has crystallized my feelings a little more; this was one of my favorite reading experiences so far. Friendship, coming of age, war, and guilt displayed with gorgeous prose. The sections describing nature were some of my favorites i’ve ever read. This whole book just resonated with me hugely and i couldn’t put it down. The ending was a little messy but i don’t mind. Now i’m gonna do the annoying thing and talk about what other books it reminds me of
