While I've always been a reader I am new to the world of booktube and bookstagram. So I had not heard the hype over Elena Ferrante's My Brilliant Friend and her three other Neopolitan Novels. It came as a 'brilliant' surprise to me. The simple, beautiful writing and addictive story line had me hooked. I read all four in about 2 weeks and haven't stopped thinking about them since. #elenaferrante #mybrilliantfriend #italy
