Juliane reviewed Eleanor & Park by Rainbow Rowell
Review of 'Eleanor & Park' on 'Goodreads'
4 stars
Are four stars even too much? I'm not sure if I liked the book that much. Ok, I had high expectations because everyone in the internet seems to love that story. After I liked "Fangirl" I thought I would give Eleanor and Park a try. But it was very different from what I expected. The love story was not deep, at least what I felt. Eleanor was always on distance. Also as a reader I couldn't get close to her. But well, actually I think that this book is not about the love (?) story between Eleanor and Park, it is more about Eleanor's family which is a mess. And I'm not sure what I think about the end of the book. A bit more details would have been nice. To me, it feels like a chapter is missing, or at least a song title.
