This is the first Sally Rooney's book I read. It's a coming-of-age story, and it is very well written. But I do feel some issues are unnecessary. Yes, wounds are real and can change people. But they don't have to be exactly those issues. It's my opinion, but I think the issues highlighted are just to raise awareness of certain social issues.
