As we come to the end of 2020 I was looking to read a novel that is funny and perhaps light hearted. This was definitely not it for me. I had thought Eleanor would be similar to Fredrick Backman’s Britt-Marie and she made me laugh out loud. Eleanor on the other hand seemed like such a sad character. I also guessed the plot twists before they happened. Perhaps having a background in social work took away from this novel. I know so many people loved it.

A very fine book

I know some of the background is a bit implausible, but I couldn't help but love this book, and Eleanor. You just feel so sad for her and want her to be happy and succeed in life. And somehow, even with the horrifying background, you'll find yourself laughing at some of the awkward, ridiculous situations Eleanor gets herself into.

Great story, but much more depressing than I had expected.
