lauz_w 's review for:

Normal People by Sally Rooney
2.0

Probably 2.5 rounded down for problematic content.

I put off reading this for ages, esp after reading CWF. With this, I found most of the same pros and cons:

Pros - easy to read, well written
Cons - awful characters, problematic content

I have also found myself identifying with the characters feelings at time, and then being horrendously frustrated at them. I gave CWF 3 stars but I really am past books like this where characters struggle to communicate with each other for literacy purposes.
