It’s the day bookworms up and down the country have been waiting for. Sally Rooney’s ‘Beautiful World, Where Are You‘ hits shelves today.
The hotly anticipated novel follows the success of her second novel ‘Normal People‘ and its on-screen adaptation which was released in 2020.
Following a similar trajectory to her well-loved former works, ‘Beautiful World, Where Are You‘ tells the story of Alice and Eileen, two best friends who navigate life as young adults, dealing with love and heartbreak as they find themselves.
The blurb reads;
“They desire each other, they delude each other, they get together, they break apart. They have sex, they worry about sex, they worry about their friendships and the world they live in”
