This is the story of the on-again, off-again relationship between Connell and Marianne. Marianne’s entire personality is her trauma, but that’s still better than Connor, who doesn’t have any personality at all.
For a couple that talks a LOT, they’re awfully bad at communicating. This is a great book to read before going to sleep because even thinking about their relationship makes me feel tired.
