(això si, unpopular opinion: no m'ha agradat GENS l'eleanor) suposo que la màgia d'aquest tipus de llibres i de trames és que, encara que representin superbé la vida l'amor i la confusió que tot això suposa arribava al final desitjant amb tota la meva ànima que els protagonistes tinguessin un final feliç, encara que això segurament suposava el contrari del que jo desitjava, una mica com la vida, vaja! pocs cops tenim els finals que voldríem tenir. m'ha remogut moltes coses per dins: és un llibre super fet per les noies sallyrooneyfleabagmitskiphoebebridgers i es nota!! tenim més de 20 anys estem tristes volem amor pro tenim problemes de salut mental i ESTA BÉ!! puc entendre perquè a la gent no li agrada: els povs de diferents personatges, la trama blablabla però són aquestes coses les que han fet que a mi personalment m'encanti. Porto absolutament tota la lectura consumida pensant en quina nota li posaria i al final amb els llagrimots que m'han caigut mhe adonat que es perquè de debò no volia posar-li les 5 estrelles del tot i s'ha apropat tantíssim que m'ha fet mal.
