Like “Normal People,” I adored this book. It’s been revolving around my mind ever since I finished it. It is a fantastic depiction of a dark and keenly observant young woman who is simply trying to figure out who she is, what she wants, and what her life truly means. Sally Rooney has an amazing ability to make reader’s care about her deeply developed characters--their lives, their problems, and their successes. What is so intriguing to me about Rooney’s work is her characters! The story is developed from them, and that is what makes Rooney’s work so brilliant.
