Beautiful World, Where Are You by Sally Rooney
5.0
These Irish authors have ACTUALLY nailed it!
It took me a week to finish reading this book because it was so perfect and I really didn't want it to come to an end.
There wasn't much of a plot but I think that was the point; that a novel can go through nothing mind-blowing but still be, by nature, mind-blowing!
A fun fact about this book is when characters speak, there's no quotation mark , and still they are so distinctive and well-written that you know exactly who the speaker is.
The characters are also very much flawed. They make bad decisions, they push away people who are trying to help them and love them, but that's what makes it so real, isn't it? I mean, we all make mistakes anyway and seeing a character that is not "perfect" makes you feel the book.
The ideas the book discussed were spotless! Overall the idea of "beautiful world where are you" is "normal people" searching through every single detail of our normal lives to find beauty and _spoiler alert_ it's not gonna be easy.
All in all, this book is really going to be one of my all time favourites.
