Everything he came into contact with would be changed. There's nothing missing, she doesn't need anyone else. She sometimes wonders if she's a figment of her own imagination.īut she's fine with it. No one comes over and she doesn't go anywhere to visit. She drinks the vodka over the weekend.in a state where she's neither drunk nor sober, waiting for Monday to come. After work Friday she picks up pizza, wine and two big bottles of Vodka for the weekend. Her weekday routine only changes on Wednesday when she talks with "Mummy" for ten minutes. Eleanor listens to the Archers as she makes a simple dinner (usually pasta and salad - one pan one plate), watches TV or reads for a little while then off to bed at ten.
She finishes out her day, leaving work at 5:30. She starts work at 8:30, at lunch she buys a newspaper which she reads from cover to cover and then does the crossword. She's worked at the same job for nine years.
This can lead to very awkward situations.Įleanor is comfortable with her routines. She's very intelligent and well-spoken with impeccable grammar (thanks to Mummy) but she lacks the ability to filter what she says and therefore she will tell you exactly what she's thinking. She is content with her life.Įleanor is a little bit.odd. She is honestly not worried that she may be missing out on anything. Just like it says in the title of the book, Eleanor Oliphant is completely fine.well she thinks she is. Although the great reviews may have pulled me in. To be honest, I'm not sure if this book would have been on my radar if I hadn't won it. I won an advanced copy of this book through a Goodreads giveaway.
