Eleanor & Park

Okay, to start with i really didn’t have any high exception from this book since it had so many mixed reviews but as I had already read all most everything by Rainbow Rowell and was familiar with her writing i just wanted to give it a try. To my utter surprise it turned out be one of my favourite books of all time!! Also, this book is kinda special to me.
The story is simple and straight, yet extraordinary, at least thats how i felt. What made it extraordinary in Rainbow Rowell’s writing of course! She just knows how to get under the skin of a character and clearly explain what's going inside their head and why. Which actually connected me to both the main protagonist Eleanor and Park immediately.
This was just another teenage love story no doubt, but a brilliantly handled one i must say. There is no love at first sight, no instant physical attraction, no rich-poor drama. What starts between these two is just a simple understanding which goes deeper eventually and how does it go that deep is what the story is all about. Lets just sum up saying if you get the right partner at the right time of your life, then your life will be beautiful and thats what happened here with Eleanor and Park they met each other at the right time and then everything was just fine.
