Ugh! You know what? I wouldn’t recommend this at all. But she (unrealistically) recovers after a couple of sessions and finding love. Or maybe I wouldn’t because Eleanor is a victim of child abuse and clinically depressed. If you ask me for a book recommendation, I would never think of this book, but I may recommend it if you ask me for a book to read at the beach. Eleanor Oliphant is Completely Fine was, in my opinion, is an ordinary beach book, nothing more.Ī book you wouldn’t be sorry if it were stolen or fall into the pool. The tiny comments and her strange behaviour signal something terrible.
Now, although with what you have read so far, you may think Eleanor Oliphant is Completely Fine is a boring book, as it progresses, you realise that there is a big thing hidden in Eleanor’s past, and Eleanor is not a normal person at all. On the other hand, she slowly begins to become friends with the new IT staff member in the office. She then falls in love with someone one day. She doesn’t want to get along with them if you want the truth. She works as an accountant at an advertising agency she started working for at the age of 21, and she cannot get along with her colleagues. But unfortunately, she cannot stop herself and drink two bottles of vodka on the weekends. She is perfectly happy in her own little world and rituals and does not need anyone. Eleanor is a woman who lived alone until she was thirty and never needed anyone in her life. Not because it is amazing, but because it is an easy read, without depths.Įleanor Oliphant is Completely Fine tells the story of Eleanor.
If I didn’t have a guest staying over, I could have finished it in a day. She gave it to me with a smile because she believed that I could never finish 380 pages in three days. Knowing I wouldn’t want to reread Eleanor Oliphant is Completely Fine, instead of buying it, I asked my favourite member of the club to lend it to me three days before our meeting.
