Call Me by Your Name

This is probably my favorite read of the year so far.

A story that is so beautifully written and romantic. You may not agree with the actions or thoughts of characters, but you understand them. The author understands his characters so fundamentally and is able to bring them to life with just words on a page. Sure having seen the movie helps bring to life the characters you do know, but there are different aspects in here and they were just as clear in my head as if they had been in the film as well.

My favorite thing about this novel is definitely the writing style. It matches so well with the lyricism of Sufjan Stevens, that I was able to throw on any album of his as I read this.

Truly a wonderful read that enhances the movie in my eyes as well.
