Left a bit of a sour taste in my mouth. It was far too long. The ending dragged the fuck on as well. If Peter’s chapters weren’t written in incomplete sentences this could have been a 4 or 5 star book. Peter was my favorite character. Sally Rooney is good at dialogue and character development, however it seems like she has gotten lazy. I’m sick of her no quotations or indents shtick.
