Beautiful World, Where Are You by Sally Rooney
Did not finish book. Stopped at 40%.

Couldn’t finish book. Got 25% in with little interest, then almost halfway in before reading reviews stating there is no real storyline. Agreed that the characters are unlikeable and it’s difficult to connect with any of them.
