Eudora Honeysett is Quite Well, Thank You

Janna Niemi

Okay, this book is brilliant. At first, I was not sure whether I would enjoy this book as it seemed a bit depressing for me, but I think as soon as Rose appears, I was turned around and I just knew this book would be amazing. 
The story itself is beautiful and I think old people’s and even young people’s loneliness should be taken more seriously. I also feel so sorry and so angry for Eudora as she is an amazing character who has been given a really bad hand in life. This book also opened my eyes to why some older people might sometimes seem rude and not really mean it. 
Rose has to be my favorite character out of this book and I hope that if I ever have a daughter, she would be as amazing as Rose is. She is so bright, and brave and lovely I wish I could meet her in real life. I also like how adamant Stanley is to befriend Eudora. I just loved following the growing friendship between these three characters. I also like how they talk about death and life. It’s not a common topic in books but it’s something all of have to face.
Eudora’s story is also very interesting to read about and although it made me really sad and angry to learn about everything that she’s faced, it helps to understand why Eudora acts the way she does. 
The characters in this story are really good and complex. I really loved following them along their journey and I loved how they became such close friends. I also really like the ending. It is so sad, but also so happy and I did not cry in the end but I did cry in the middle of the book because that part is just so incredibly sad. 

I listened the audiobook and I think the narrator makes the book come to life. Their voice just made me feel like Eudora herself was talking and telling her story to me and I really enjoyed this. I think I enjoyed this more as an audiobook than I would have enjoyed it had I read the book myself. 

All in all, this book is just amazing! And I recommend to everybody!
