Eleanor Oliphant is NOT completely fine!
Well, at least not at first!

This is a well-told story but I sort of knew where we were going and got a bit impatient to get there. Also, it was a bit hard to believe that no-one from her helper groups ever really paid attention to her nor did they get her the counseling help she needed years ago.
