I loved this book. I read it very quickly, and would have had read it much faster if I didn't have to work and could have stayed up all night to read it. 

I loved the narrative style, the two narrators, and my favourite moments were often when we revisted the same moment from both perspectives. 

It certainly led to a lot of discussion with my partner, who recommended the book to me. 

5/5 will read again. I really loved it. Sally Rooney is now an auto-read for me.
