![]() After Eleanor's father left them, Eleanor and her four siblings are forces to move into a tiny shack of a houses as their mother remarries. Eleanor comes from a very dysfunctional family. ![]() However both characters where so unique and well written that I felt personally intertwined between their story. Some romances can be very one sided and you read through it constantly having to guess about the secondary character thus not developing as much a connection with them. Having the ability to switch between what both characters were feeling and their backgrounds made this book whole. Shortly following, it appeared that Rowell had structured this book to be in both Eleanor's and Park's point of view. Rainbow Rowell has truly outdone herself and in my opinion this is her best writing so far.įrom the very first page I knew I would enjoy this book, even at this early stage the characters appeared perfectly cast and I could immediately identify with them. ![]() Eleanor and Park is a beautifully crafted masterpiece of a book. ![]()
