Sally Rooney, Sally Rooney: Normal People (Hardcover, 2018, Faber & Faber)

Rubbish. A quarter of it is love scenes. Very steamy like fifty shades of grey

Review of 'Normal People' on 'Goodreads'

Fucking hell... I was going to give this three stars but the third to last sentence of the novel was such a damn farce. Is that supposed to be ironical? I really do hope so.

I liked the beginning but soon the story got really repetitive. And whenever something happened there was another jump in time and the parts which could've brought some true depth were skipped. Why was this book so superficial when it had the potential to be an impactfull masterpiece?

The writing was beautiful, though. And Lorraine is the best mom character ever (:
