I listened to this as an audiobook and the narrator had the most lovely Irish accent. I had never read a Sally Rooney novel before, but was recommended this by a friend, and I enjoyed it very much. Being a sibling is hard, so is losing a parent, and being in love. Great novel!

A bit of a difficult start but overall a hopeful story.

you First

Just finished listening to You First, and I ended up liking it more than For You and Only You. It feels like an essential piece of Joe Goldberg lore rather than bonus content; showing which parts of who Joe becomes were shaped by experience, and which parts may have always been internal. This version of Joe is noticeably more naïve and optimistic, with the cynicism we associate with him still in its early stages. Knowing that certain things happened before Book 1 genuinely changes how you look at the rest of the series. Best of all, it never feels like a prequel announcing itself as one, it just is. So it works just as well for longtime readers, new readers, or anyone picking up the series at any point.
