Normal People

I honestly don't know what to think about this book. I've never had such a hard time assigning a star rating before.

I disliked this book until about the halfway point. After that, I still wasn't crazy about it but I was pretty invested in Marianne and Connell. Like I couldn't help rooting for them even though they made me nuts.

At the end I just wanted to chuck the book across the room.

There is something to be said for being this angry at a book, though. I'm obviously too invested in it to say that the book was simply not good. As for all the 5 star ratings go - I just don't get it. I feel like I'm missing something big here.
