Review of 'Call Me by Your Name' on 'Goodreads'

2 stars

The English language was a bit too intellectual and difficult for me. It was hard sometimes to understand what was being said or what the author meant. I also hated the fact that almost every sentence had to be said in different ways. I felt like every page could have been shortened by half. It was so repetitive.

I also was very bored at Elio being overly obsessed about Oliver. We all might have been star struck once in our lives, but how Elio acts throughout this story is just plain disgusting at times. Not even mentioning the peach-thing. What the hell.

The last chapter made the story a bit better, but still not enough to make this a good story.
