This is the story of sad & introvert Tori Spring. 16-year-old me wouldn’t have liked it all that much, she would have sympathised with the characters, but she wouldn’t have understood them like 21-year-old me did. This book broke me, I think I’m reading it at the exact right moment in my life. I don’t even think this book was made for happy people, they would dislike it, say everything inside this book is utter bullshit. Just because someone smiles doesn’t mean that they’re happy.
I believe this is a book you either love or hate, understand or don't. It makes me very happy to see all this put into words and represented in this wonderful story.Īlthough I disliked a few characters - I did not really understand why the main character even put up with them - and did expect something else from the ending, I just have to give 5 stars.
It deals with all the stuff our generation deals with, especially anxiety, depression and lgbt+ topics. Solitaire is, in general, an extremely relatable YA novel. I couldn't wait to read about all the characters I had already heard of and I instantly fell in love with Nick&Charlie. So when I finally, finally! found it at the library I think I maybe made some loud joyful sound and hugged it.yeah. I've been following Alice Oseman ever since and I desperately wanted to read her novel. When you watch a film, you’re sort of an outsider looking in.
