Book Review of 'Eleanor & Park' by Rainbow Rowell

'Eleanor & Park' is a book about a girl who is new in town and couldn't stand out more if she tried. All she wants is to hide away though, but to one boy, Park, she is everything he could want. Over time they go from never talking to never wanting to be apart.                                                                                                                             I thought that this book was really exciting with lots of twists in the plot and you never new what would happen next and where their relationship would go. Both Eleanor and Park came from completely different families who thought differently on the relationship. This made the story more enticing as I wanted to know whether everything would work out in the end.                                                                                                                             The best part of the book was the ending, although I can't say much about it without spoiling the plot, I liked how it ended because it shows how much they care for each other.

This probably isn't one of my favorite books that I have read because I prefer books where more happens, not just the romance, but that is not to say that I didn't enjoy this book, I did!

I did like the way that the book is written though, because there are two characters, the author has done sections within the chapters so that you find out what happens in each persons life and what it is like from their perspectives, so there will be a section from Eleanor's perspective, and then maybe they go home and you find out what Park does at home. This was an interesting way of writing the book and I really enjoyed it.
