“If God wanted me to give you up, he wouldn’t have made me who I am.”
I had to finish reading this because there was no way I was going to bed without doing so. The first five chapters of this book were insufferable and after having a terrible time with my first Rooney novel, Normal People I was worried Rooney was not it for me as a whole.
Overall, I really enjoyed this book and I totally get both the hype and the hatred for it; it's iconic. I will say this book has a lot of sex and religion mixed in and that was way too much for me at times. The formatting of the book with MULTIPLE PAGES having no breaks was killing me at times but I slowly got over it.
Straight vibes and extremely odd.
if I could describe this book in three words it would be "what the fuck".
