I thought I’d enjoy this more than I did, I hadn’t seen the movie for 10-15 years but it was a bit different than I remembered. Didn’t recall all of the slurs used. Holly Is an interesting character and I wonder how it would’ve been different if written by a woman. Felt like I had to finish it bc it’s a classic & the second half went down easier than the first! Took awhile to get into it for such a short book though.
