Review: Gripping, page turner, character deepdive - I really enjoyed this book. 4.5 stars Strengths: -Page turner. It hooked me right away, and never let go. -Emotional complexity. It felt nice to get to know the characters deeply. They were well-developed. -Perceptive criticisms. There were some nice commentaries on status games, art, and douchey people Things that bothered me: -Kinky-shaming. I’m kinky, and I think this book portrays kink in a pretty negative, and extremely narrow light. BDSM is already a very misunderstood subculture, and this book just added fuel to that fire -Plot relies on bad communication. I’m so sick of romance books and shows developing a plot based on characters’ inability to be honest w how they feel and what they want 😵‍💫. And this book fell prey to that -The book jumps from present to past a lot. It felt a little unnecessary, and confusing at times. I'd often forget we were in the past, and then I'd get brought back to the present. -Try-hard. Just a little bit. I can't pin down why, but I had the theory tha tthe author really wanted to come off as perceptive and clever. But some of her descriptions just felt like she was trying too hard. -No quotations! Minor thing, but when characters speak, there are no quotation marks! I never really adjusted and didn't like this style edit. All in all though, great book. I enjoyed it a lot and will definitely read another novel by the author. Review: overall good - It was very interesting at the beginning. However the story line seems a little too simple. It might be good to have few more characters that has fuller personalities. The ending felt short and quick. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B07FS25XTW | | Accessibility | Learn more | | Best Sellers Rank | #2,429 in Kindle Store ( See Top 100 in Kindle Store ) #3 in British & Irish Literary Fiction #26 in Psychological Fiction (Books) #30 in Coming of Age Fiction (Books) | | Customer Reviews | 4.1 4.1 out of 5 stars (133,219) | | Enhanced typesetting | Enabled | | File size | 3.1 MB | | ISBN-13 | 978-1984822192 | | Language | English | | Page Flip | Enabled | | Print length | 278 pages | | Publication date | April 16, 2019 | | Publisher | Crown | | Word Wise | Enabled | | X-Ray | Enabled | ## Images ![Normal People: A Novel - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/715EnIVDx5L.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Gripping, page turner, character deepdive *by M***N on July 7, 2025* I really enjoyed this book. 4.5 stars Strengths: -Page turner.

However the story line seems a little too simple. It might be good to have few more characters that has fuller personalities. The ending felt short and quick. ### ⭐⭐⭐ hmm *by L***H on January 16, 2026* Don’t really know what to make of this book. I found it to be quite circular and after awhile it became less compelling and more ennui-inducing. I think the story stalls once they hit their college years because then they just get stuck there and repeat the same song and dance over and over again. The main characters also have this subdued, noncommittal demeanor that also grew stale after a while. I came away feeling largely indifferent about everything going on. This was a miss for me. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/104658741-normal-people-a-novel](https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/104658741-normal-people-a-novel) --- *Product available on Desertcart United Kingdom* *Store origin: GB* *Last updated: 2026-05-19*
