Also very happy to see your review of Cleopatra and Frankenstein because I’ve seen a mixed bag of reviews that made me leave it on my shelf for a long time…. But now…..
I’m dying to read Bluets!! I have also heard that Maggie Nelson is magic. And happy first Sally Rooney!!!!! I’m so glad you loved it - I am also confused at how polarising people find her writing because it’s perfect? If you loved the book you should give the adaptation a watch - it’s not as good as the book (of course) but I did think they did a good job in parts of bringing the story to the screen. Starting out with a normal people adaption was too high of a bar to set I think.
Bluets was suuuuuuch a journey. Such intense and dreamy nuggets of truth and observation. Maggie is such an icon!
and yesssss! rooney is such a good writer im so confused that people wouldnt like her???? im def going to give the show a watch and will probably read normal people this month!!
Cannot wait for you to read more Sally Rooney!!
