Summary: Eleanor and Park by Rainbow Rowell is about a girl named Eleanor and a boy named Park. Eleanor... Red hair, wrong clothes. Standing behind him until he turns his head. Making everyone else seem drabber and flatter and never good enough. Park... He knows she'll love a song before he plays it for her. He laughs at her jokes before she ever gets to the punch line. She makes her want to keep promises. Set over the course of one school year, this is the story of two star-crossed sixteen-year-olds smart enough to know that first love almost never lasts, but brave and desperate enough to try. My Thoughts: This book is amazing. Rainbow Rowell is amazing. This book was recommended to me by a friend. I don't read many contemporaries, but boy am I glad I read this one. At like page 70 I was smiling like a goof. This book makes you so happy and is perfect for getting you out of reading slumps. You should read this book, you'll be glad you did! :) |
