I thought Eleanor Oliphant was nasty, but that may be just me.

I’ve been tagging threads and just spotted Greg’s comment. I can understand why you didn’t like CMODE BUT I didn’t think there was anything nasty about EA?

In the early part it felt like the author was laughing at the character. I found that deeply unpleasant.

I hadn't read EO back then but I did read it last year and, to my surprise, warmed to it. I found it quite warm and sympathetic towards its characters, many of whom were slightly not quite normal.

I didn't like it, so I think you should cancel it. (haven't you read it?) |
