Really great story dealing with so many issues— what it's like to not be part of the in crowd, how everyone feels out of place as a teen, first love, being ashamed of your home life, being poor, being in an abusive home, being in a multicultural home and much more. I really enjoyed it. :)

I joined the Rainbow Rowell bandwagon a while ago, when I read and loved Fangirl, so Eleanor & Park has been on the top of my TBR list for a while now. I was just so darn excited for this one! But from the get-go, this book and I... we didn't click. It started with the slang. I know, what? Well, th...

Ridiculously cute. The plot is a timely somewhat rehash of Romeo & Juliet and is self-aware while rehashing. Simple declarations of young love in back-and-forth sections between Park and Eleanor.
