Intermezzo by Sally Rooney

4.5

I found the writing style of Peter’s POV really jarring and hard to get used to, but I think the use of different voices for the characters worked really well in the end. 

I also found some of the characters really frustrating and didn’t understand some of their choices. 

However even with those things considered? This is such a touching story of grief, siblings, complicated relationships, and how they all intertwine. It definitely moved me more than I expected and I think it will stay with me for quite a while.

This was cute and light and fun.  I liked  it more than the first one probably. These characters are not deep per se, but they were a bit more complex maybe in this one? 

Very out of my realm, predictable to some extent, very low stakes, cheesy for sure, but sometimes that’s what we need.
