Summary
#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER
A Reese Witherspoon Book Club Pick
"Beautifully written and incredibly funny， Eleanor Oliphant Is Completely Fine is about the importance of friendship and human connection。 I fell in love with Eleanor， an eccentric and regimented loner whose life beautifully unfolds after a chance encounter with a stranger; I think you will fall in love， too！" --Reese Witherspoon
No one's ever told Eleanor that life should be better than fine。
Meet Eleanor Oliphant: She struggles with appropriate social skills and tends to say exactly what she's thinking。 Nothing is missing in her carefully timetabled life of avoiding social interactions， where weekends are punctuated by frozen pizza， vodka， and phone chats with Mummy。
But everything changes when Eleanor meets Raymond， the bumbling and deeply unhygienic IT guy from her office。 When she and Raymond together save Sammy， an elderly gentleman who has fallen on the sidewalk， the three become the kinds of friends who rescue one another from the lives of isolation they have each been living。 And it is Raymond's big heart that will ultimately help Eleanor find the way to repair her own profoundly damaged one。
Soon to be a major motion picture produced by Reese Witherspoon， Eleanor Oliphant Is Completely Fine is the smart， warm， and uplifting story of an out-of-the-ordinary heroine whose deadpan weirdness and unconscious wit make for an irresistible journey as she realizes。 。 。
The only way to survive is to open your heart。

This book was amazing。 It covered so many important issues in a beautiful and honest way。I found the way that the author portrayed Eleanor in such an honest way very moving。 Her background of foster care and having her physical but not her emotional needs meet very sad and I suspect very likely。This book has been on my tbr pile for a while and I'm so glad that I finally found the time to read it This book was amazing。 It covered so many important issues in a beautiful and honest way。I found the way that the author portrayed Eleanor in such an honest way very moving。 Her background of foster care and having her physical but not her emotional needs meet very sad and I suspect very likely。This book has been on my tbr pile for a while and I'm so glad that I finally found the time to read it 。。。more

I really loved this novel。 It started out a little slow ， maybe the first 50 pages。 But once you learn what Eleanor is going through and what she has dealt with in the past， it really pulls you in。 The author does a good job of allowing the reader to feel a lot of emotions。 This book was Sad， hilarious， happy， so many feelings throughout this book。 I would love for an Eleanor Oliphant part 2 ！！！！！

I really loved this book and tried to stretch it in the end because I didn't want it to finish。 A good reminder about not judging others too fast and too hard， you don't know what experiences they carry。 Highly recommend it。 I really loved this book and tried to stretch it in the end because I didn't want it to finish。 A good reminder about not judging others too fast and too hard， you don't know what experiences they carry。 Highly recommend it。 。。。more

Funny， unique， heartbreaking and heartwarming all at once！ Eleanor is unlike any other fictional character I’ve ever read。 I went through a whirlwind of emotions as I was taken along on her journey of self discovery and self worth。 The ending for me was beautiful， realistic and not overly sentimental - I say with conviction that Eleanor Oliphant truly is completely fine！ I closed this book feeling warm and fussy。

I finished reading this book 2 days ago but waited until now to review it in hopes that I would have more coherent thoughts about it by now。 Sadly I do not。 I don't know what to say about this book except that it was like nothing I've read before and keeps haunting me so I have to give it 4 stars。 I finished reading this book 2 days ago but waited until now to review it in hopes that I would have more coherent thoughts about it by now。 Sadly I do not。 I don't know what to say about this book except that it was like nothing I've read before and keeps haunting me so I have to give it 4 stars。 。。。more

I’d give 4。5 stars。 I loved the odd comedy laced with sadness in describing Eleanors character。 It was fascinating watching her develop and open up to the world and people around her。

My work colleagues have been raving about this for an eternity， one if them even gave me a copy to read。Not going to lie。。。 This is one of those books that， for me is an ok read but I feel it is completely overhyped， it is in no way life changing and if I didn't nominate it as a book for this readathon I would of DNF'd it。Sadly Eleanor Oliphant is completely boring and underwhelming。 My work colleagues have been raving about this for an eternity， one if them even gave me a copy to read。Not going to lie。。。 This is one of those books that， for me is an ok read but I feel it is completely overhyped， it is in no way life changing and if I didn't nominate it as a book for this readathon I would of DNF'd it。Sadly Eleanor Oliphant is completely boring and underwhelming。 。。。more

*AudiobookI gave this 2 stars。 I just don’t understand the hype。 I know…I know。 I’m in the minority as this book has received tremendous praise。 It just didn’t do it for me。 I think Elenor was cute and quirky…。sorta reminded me of a new age Amelia Bedelia。 Her mom was a nut job （I would’ve preferred this went more into the horror genre with the boo is for the mom in the audiobook）。 I laughed a couple of times （I mean her description of spongebob was pretty funny， as was the line where she was as *AudiobookI gave this 2 stars。 I just don’t understand the hype。 I know…I know。 I’m in the minority as this book has received tremendous praise。 It just didn’t do it for me。 I think Elenor was cute and quirky…。sorta reminded me of a new age Amelia Bedelia。 Her mom was a nut job （I would’ve preferred this went more into the horror genre with the boo is for the mom in the audiobook）。 I laughed a couple of times （I mean her description of spongebob was pretty funny， as was the line where she was asked if she was seeing anyone and she thought that meant literally who she was looking at）。 I just didn’t care for this book at all。 Seemed pointless to me。 Some books don’t have much of a plot but somehow manage to keep the reader engaged。 This wasn’t one of them…at least not for me。 It all seemed a bit drawn out and although I liked Elenor’s character， I’m glad the book is over。 I doubt I’d read another book by this author。 。。。more

Gail Honeyman pega em temas duros como a solidão e a depressão e transforma-o numa leitura leve e até divertida。Se nos dias bons soltei algumas gargalhadas com a personalidade caricata de Eleanor， nos dias maus o meu coração ficou apertadinho。Um livro cuja mensagem se traduz na importância de não tecer juízos de valor sobre o próximo， sem saber aquilo por que passou ou está ainda a passar。Escrito de uma forma bastante simples e apelativa， A Educação de Eleonor consegue ser um livro humano， que a Gail Honeyman pega em temas duros como a solidão e a depressão e transforma-o numa leitura leve e até divertida。Se nos dias bons soltei algumas gargalhadas com a personalidade caricata de Eleanor， nos dias maus o meu coração ficou apertadinho。Um livro cuja mensagem se traduz na importância de não tecer juízos de valor sobre o próximo， sem saber aquilo por que passou ou está ainda a passar。Escrito de uma forma bastante simples e apelativa， A Educação de Eleonor consegue ser um livro humano， que apela à nossa bondade， divertido e ao mesmo tempo bastante comovente。 。。。more

It’s completely fineI didn’t love it。 Didn’t hate it。 It was fine。 The writing was good and the dialogue Nice but the plot wasn’t enough for me。

An enjoyable read Although this book broaches on triggering and dark topics， it dose so in such a franc manner that would be startling had any other character made the assertion。 I book I finished all too quickly， this novel ask readers to reflect back on themselves to see the coping mechanism we use to deal with the trauma of life。

It was an unpredictable plot and I liked how details of the character's appearances were weaved in progressively， which left a few pleasant surprises along the way。 However， the general plot was quite dark and left a lot to be desired in the simple ending。 It was an unpredictable plot and I liked how details of the character's appearances were weaved in progressively， which left a few pleasant surprises along the way。 However， the general plot was quite dark and left a lot to be desired in the simple ending。 。。。more
