Eleanor Oliphant is Completely Fine by Gail Honeyman is a beautiful novel about a socially awkward young woman who spends all her time alone when she is not working. As circumstances throw her into an unlikely friendship with a coworker, we see her inner world slowly open up in the most intimate, vulnerable and often hilarious ways.

A character reminiscent of Fredrik Backman’s Ove and Britt-Marie, but wholly her own, it is impossible not to laugh out loud and fall in love with Eleanor Oliphant. .
