However, it’s your choice to decide if you want to read this book depending on how you feel about slow, character driven, and realistic fiction. Eventually these differences are presented in their romantic relationship as well. This comes from the way they were both raised and treated growing up. Still, the way Marianne and Connell communicate show social aspects of difference. Most of us stopped communicating with people because it either became weird or wasn’t an obligation anymore.Įven though this book came out before 2020, I think that the relationship between peoples communication skills was presented greatly.
Furthermore, even with the COVID-19 pandemic taking over in 2020, we all lost human connection. Someone could be amazing at communication, but never get the same communication in exchange. Someone could have bad communication in a relationship that ultimately ends because of the lack of communication they have given to their partner. Communication is a big thing that many struggle with throughout their entire life. I can get why people have a problem with the back and forth between Marianne and Connell, but it really shows how normal people act. The repetitiveness can be an anger to a lot of people because Marianne and Connell have an on and off relationship.īesides many mixed opinions, I personally love this book. The problem people have with the book is the characters’ plotted storyline makes it feel slow and repetitive. The story does not have a solid plot, it is more of a character driven book. The book presents social connections and reactions between two different characters. Many people have mixed opinions on this book. As the story progresses, the dynamics of broken relationships and human connections are shown throughout these two characters’ secretive relationship that develops.ĭISCLAIMER!!!!: This article contains content warnings, trigger warnings, and spoiler warnings, as this is an in depth book article review
