One of my favourite reads of the last 12 months. Its like ‘you’ from netflix, or the actual book. Its a very dark but funny novel about raging mental illness. I loved it and recommend it to everyone
Eleanor Oliphant is certainly an eccentric character. It was intriguing following her journey (albeit a slow one) to self-awareness, as well as finding human connection, spontaneity and meaning from an otherwise lonely, monotonous life. The story is amusing, unpredictable, optimistic and hopeful. Would highly recommend!

Eleanor Oliphant has learned how to survive – but not how to live
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.
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?
