This book was absolutely INCREDIBLE!!!!
The story follows these two characters (Eleanor & Park) from the first day they meet. They are both seen as misfits to everyone at school and through some common interests, they eventually fall for each other.
Before I started reading this book, I thought it was going to be a light contemporary read with a cute love story but as I was reading I came to discover that it was so much more than that. The story involves the background of the characters and their lifestyles which I thought gave the book a deeper meaning. I was very surprised with some of the things I came across because there were no hints of them from what I had read in the synopsis which I thought was great as it made the book much more interesting.
The writing was so flowing and was so easy to understand. I've read one other book by Rainbow Rowell which I also really loved which was “Attachments” so I was happy to see a similar flow in writing in this book. Rainbow Rowell is able to place deep meanings in such short sentences and paragraphs which I find really beautiful.
