Eleanor Oliphant Is Completely Fine

#SPOILERS START HERE!

I think I fell in love with the narrator from the first page as she works in an office environment since I do too. I really did resonate with her feelings and point of views. That the story is written in a slow but meticulous flow helps further the development of the story.

I particularly like that Eleanor and Raymond don't end up as a couple. As someone who has often had similar feelings that Eleanor has, it's not love that I seek. It's more often than not, for someone to just... be there. Regularly.

This is an absolutely well written book and one that delves into the themes of depression, trauma, and abuse with a degree of accuracy. I commend the author for putting this story out.

What did you guys think of the novel? How did Eleanor come across to you?
