Review Detail

It's not often you get to read a loe story that progresses so naturally. Normally things happen way too fast. Sure, there are the occasional super fast relationships, but most start out slow while both people get to know each other a little at a time. Which is exactly what happens for Eleanor and Park. Heck, when the two first meet he thinks she looks really weird and she's not such a fan of the guy who curses at her and begrudgingly shares his bus seat.

My one gripe about the story is Eleanor. I can understand that her home life messed with her a bit and made it difficult for her to let herself care for Park, but I still couldn't quite get past how mean she was to him all the time. Here's this guy giving him your heart and what does she do? More or less tucks it in her pocket and walks away. Park was always trying so hard to compliment Eleanor and show her how much he liked her, but she shut him down nearly every time.
