Normal People by Sally Rooney
“By now I’m sure most people have seen the show on Hulu (if you haven’t, what are you waiting for?!), but the book is worth reading too. I actually watched the show, then read the book, then watched the show AGAIN. Rooney creates such dimensional characters, and her prose is addictive. The book sheds more light on the inner conflict of the characters, but the show brings it all to life. Honestly, I loved both, and still can’t stop thinking about Marianne and Connell and their incredible journey.”
