Done!

Everyone In This Room Will Someday Be Dead, Strange Sally Diamond and Eleanor Oliphant is Completely Fine hit my radar more or less the same time last year. And with this, I have completed this "similar" trilogy.

It's like these authors attended the same writing workshops, were given the same prompts with the same themes and the top 3 entries got a publication deal out of it.

While the first took its sweet time in establishing the characters & events, the second part was too quick, as if the author had a checklist she wanted to finish before concluding the story.

Overall, it was okay. There was no plot per se. It's just about a girl, navigating her traumas. If you are the type who gets a hard on by reading prose, character interactions & other such platitudinous reasons, this could be right up your alley.

Just a piece of advice, if you actually desire quality plot amongst these 3, Strange Sally Diamond is the way to go. Now, that is like the 5 Point Palm technique, hits you in all the right spots
