Eleanor and Park by Rainbow Rowell

5.0

I loved this. I swear I did. It was absolutely fantastic and I am in love with the two characters and how unique they were while still being completely relatable. It described how perfectly bitter and awful it is to lose someone you love so incredibly much. I did think, at times, there were scenes that didn't fit - things that magically appeared too quick or too much extended dialogue on something that didn't need to be explained. How did Tina's character development progress so rapidly that suddenly she wanted to help Eleanor, and convinced Steve to help? Other than being a relatable situation with her own stepfather, she must have had a TON to drink. Regardless, their story was absolutely fantastic. And I adore them. Thanks for the sobbing at 1am. Definitely needed that.
