I loved loved loved this book. I wasn’t a huuuge fan of normal people but I thoroughly enjoyed reading this one. Sally Rooney’s writing style is very unique and although I struggled with the lack of speech marks at first, I ended up binge reading this book in a day. I feel like all of the characters in this book have morally grey personality traits but they were all surprisingly relatable in some ways. Watching the characters come to life in the TV show made me love this story even more.
