Eleanor Oliphant Is Completely Fine
by Gail Honeyman

View in Library Catalog

book cover


5 stars A book about loneliness and overcoming your past, trying hard to live as “normally” as possible in this crazy world. I resonate deeply with Eleanor Oliphant. All her rights and wrongs, her issues and all. A great read that i’d recommend for anyone who understands or wants to understand the feeling of being alone and the feeling of the ghosts that haunt you.

I really like this book but I dont really love it. Its a great book i would probobaly read it again but it gets boring in some parts. There are parts of the book that kind of get boring for me because of my ADHD but I still really like it and I will always like a little spookiness.

In the Twisted Series, so far I feel this was the best book. The relationship between Rhys and Bridget is immaculate and I really enjoyed the story a it gave a royal feel but wasn't a fantasy at all. I also really like the humor in the book as well.

Behind You Is The Sea

This book was well-written. I enjoyed the characters and the stories. And, I enjoyed learning more about Palestinian-Americans. My one criticism is more about personal preference - this book read like a collection of short stories, with each chapter penned from the perspective of a different character. The stories didn't connect together all that well - sometimes, we'd see some of the same characters show up in multiple stories; other times, a major character from one story would show up as a minor character in another. I prefer a more congruent narrative. Some of the stories were more interesting than others or cut off right where there was potential to get more interesting. It was also a little confusing to follow the threads given the number of characters and the different timelines involved. I understand this format is a stylistic preference, but it's not my favorite. Still, there was a lot to appreciate here, and I would look forward to reading more from this debut author.

My least favorite Emily Henry book to date — this was a silly romcom that I felt was 50 pages too long!!

Really good book. I would recommend for teens. I like the main character and the problems he has to go through. It was a really funny and entertaining book to read. Rowdy is my favorite character. It is a nice and quick read because it is only 200 pages.
