It's been a few months since I read it but I didn't like it very much. I loved Normal People (haven't read Conversations with Friends) but I feel like the characters lacked the chemistry that I really loved in Connell and Marianne, so I didn't care as much about their story. I liked that she was doing something different and I liked that we got a story also about the friendships of these girls. I felt like, by having four characters to deal with, we didn't get to go as into their lives as we did Connell and Marianne and they turned out kind of flat because of it.
