this was great! real nice vibes and liked your points about Rooney's compassion + the idea of the book "paving the way" for the rest of her work. :)

(also! forgot to mention this but it's one of the funniest parts of the book to me) ivan: doesn't travel by plane & always shops second hand for the environment also ivan: travels to the other side of the country every weekend to see his gf

Hey Kara! I'm very glad you made this spoiler free video as I am only reaching 2/3 of the book today, but was SO interested to hear your thoughts already. I agree with what you said about Sally Rooney writing the two brother's voices very differently. It's definitely something I noticed too and was impressed with. The way Peter's thoughts are a little more all over the place and really read like a stream of consciousness or something... I never actually considered it might be because he's under some kind of medication but now that you're pointing at it, it makes perfect sense. I also read it a little like, for me, being the older doesn't necessarily mean your way of thinking makes more sense or is very organized in reality. The more you age, the more you can doubt things, because you come to realize with experience that there isn't one way to look at things but many ways. I don't know if I make sense. But I think it's funny because Peter is described and perceived by others as someone who always wants to be right about things, like he's got this kind of superiority complex. And I think his inner monologues sometimes contradict this. I also absolutely agree about how layered the book is. I keep thinking about it when I'm not reading it and every new day I come with a new revelation about what she might want to convey, or what this or that character really mean etc. It also makes me reconsider and ponder about things from my life which I think is the highest compliment I could give to a book. It just really resonates with me and some of my life experiences. She indirectly and very lightly touches just the right chords deep within my heart and mind. I already want to reread it even though I'm not even finished with it! Now I'll need to set a Storygraph account to read your review! I may come back to talk about it more when I'm finished with the book! :)

this is such a generous and thoughtful comment! but what else would i expect from you, dear E? i absolutely LOVE your interpretation that peter’s more stream of consciousness inner monologue is at odds with how he presents himself to others (and especially how ivan perceives him). peter’s obsession with appearing knowledgeable and put together could very well stem from the fact that he knows he doesn’t know everything, which could be an age or personality thing (or both!) the ways you’re describing sally rooney’s writing as making you think about your own life make me so happy! i love when books do that! i also can’t wait to reread it i’m excited to see you over on storygraph sometime soon! i hope you enjoy the rest of the book ❤️

Lovely video! You’re a natural! Good Morning Midnight is on my shelves and I am intrigued with the idea that it might be more appealing to older readers. I’m looking forward to seeing your future videos! I encourage you to make the Booktube Newbie Tag which will allow lots of people in the booktube community to find your channel.
