We can be completely fine

Eleanor Oliphant Is Completely Fine by Gail Honeyman

My rating: 5 of 5 stars


I devoured this book. This was a wonderful, 5-star read for me.As a survivor of clinical depression which wrecked my late thirties and early forties, I am always nervous to read books about people struggling with their mental health. I love this book despite being dubious in the beginning and read it in large chunks. Heartfelt but never maudlin, the story follows a woman who is trapped by her own misery and inability to deal with her horrific past. It is by times thoughtful, hilarious, tearjerking and profound. If you haven't read it yet, maybe you should. IMHO of course. 😏
