Book Review of Eleanor Rigby

Eleanor Rigby
Eleanor Rigby
Author: Douglas Coupland
Genre: Literature & Fiction
Book Type: Hardcover
Helpful Score: 2


My Rating: A-

This is a fast paced and sweetly sad story of an amazingly boring woman. For anyone who has ever spent a whole night alone, wondering if anyone was going to come over to hang out, you'll understand completely how she feels.
Coupland's ability to get Liz's feelings across with words is outrageous and refreshing. At no point did I wonder what the characters were feeling.

The only problem with this story is it is hard a times to understand how the time line works, but at the end it all comes together.
I loved this book and recommend it to all.
