A coming-of-age tale that deals with the fall from innocence and the death of childhood. Neatly written, with some interesting structural devices. Rating: 70% (3.5 stars) Overall, the writing style did not feel very enjoyable for me to read. It wasn't too difficult for me to decipher most of the time, but it wasn't exactly pleasant for me to read either. Some of the time shifts felt awkward and some of the details felt pointless and over exaggerated. On the other hand, some may argue that is part of Gene's nostalgic storytelling and provides more realism, but for me personally, it was what prevented me the most from really getting into the novel. By far, A Separate Peace was not the least enjoyable book I have had to read for school. However, I didn't really feel much emotionally until I know this novel was written before people of the LGBTQ community began to be accepted in the Western world, but Gene and Finny's relationship felt more on the romantic side rather than the platonic side to me most of the time. Although my English teacher would never touch upon that subject, this was the first "classic" novel I have read for school that has shown any form of representation for this community, even if it was extremely subtle, so it did earn extra points for me in that area. What the everlasting what was that?????? I liked parts and disliked parts, but sheesh, it felt slow and then rushed and then smooshed in places. Like, I really don't know how to feel about this book. I liked the discussion about the psychology of war and adolescent masculinity, but the characters and pacing just felt...off. I expected it to end like that, in a knot of irony, and one of the friends dead. nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione

Even though I normally love all the books I have had to read for school, this one is the best one I've read. (
