Per usual with Rooney, I‘m sure this is a book I wasn‘t in love with while reading and ended with a feeling of “oh, it‘s over?” But will continue to think of for years which for me, makes this a pick.
Recently heard of the literary theory that the important stories are not the big hero quests but the stories that follow the mundane of daily life and I think that‘s why I like books like this. It hits a key nerve in my human nature.
