Eleanor Oliphant is Completely Fine by Gail Honeyman
Eleanor Oliphant has learned how to survive – but not how to live. Eleanor Oliphant leads a simple life. She wears the same clothes to work every day, eats the same meal deal for lunch every day and buys the same two bottles of vodka to drink every weekend.
A beautiful story of Eleanor who lives a very solitary life. At 31 she is very awkward, naïve, peculiar and downright strange at times. She has some demons in her life she has to fight which has made it hard to socialise. Luckily, she meets Raymond who helps her to find the strength from within to win the fight. Makes you laugh , squirm and makes you realise how you can so wrongly judge people.…
Eleanor Oliphant is happy. Nothing is missing from her carefully timetabled life. Except, sometimes, everything.
One simple act of kindness is about to shatter the walls Eleanor has built around herself. Now she must learn how to navigate the world that everyone else seems to take for granted – while searching for the courage to face the dark corners she’s avoided all her life.
Change can be good. Change can be bad. But surely any change is better than… fine?
