The book is messy and sloppy, so the ending is mirroring that. It was rushed AF. Aciman tried to tied up everything and fails miserably. Not to mention there are retcons happening in this sequel that doesn't match with the first book. Events in the first book were changed on this sequel. It is as if Aciman don't even remember what he wrote then. And then, Spoiler Half of the book is about Elio's dad, that were written so that the ending of the book can happen. But it just feel pandering, stupid, and silly because of how rushed it was. (ノ◕ヮ◕)ノ✧*:・゚ 𝚍𝚊𝚗𝚌𝚒𝚗𝚐 𝚒𝚗 𝚝𝚑𝚎 𝚜𝚑𝚊𝚍𝚘𝚠 𝚘𝚏 𝚝𝚑𝚎 𝚗𝚒-𝚒-𝚒-𝚒𝚐𝚑𝚝...!

No no the second half from the first book itself is awful. I’ve never dared to buy the sequel In the land of gods and monsters, I was an angel living in the Garden Of Eden Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

They basically grow old, Oliver gets married, has kids and lives an absolutely normal life in the US. I honestly don’t remember very well but I was very disappointed. I think how the movie ends is way more interesting. In the land of gods and monsters, I was an angel living in the Garden Of Eden Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
