Connell and Marianne grow up in the same small town in the west of Ireland, but the similarities end there. In school, Connell is popular and well-liked, while Marianne is a loner. But when the two strike up a conversation - awkward but electrifying - something life-changing begins.
Normal People is a story of mutual fascination, friendship and love. It takes us from that first conversation to the years beyond, in the company of two people who try to stay apart but find they can't.
Laura has been a Boffin for over eight years and works in our web sales, marketing, and customer service areas. She loves quirky contemporary fiction, literary criticism, and social history, and has a secret passion for self-help books.
A perfect capturing of the messiness of teenage love, and beyond. Prepare to have your heart broken, then mended, then broken again. I swallowed this book in one sitting.
