Reviews

beautifully written!!

"this book was beautifully-written, with a simple plot made great by the level of emotions and wisdom in the writing. it takes place in 1980s italy, during the hazy, dreamy months of summertime ✨ a predictable end, but all the more tragic because of it. the book is a poignant story on coming of age and the power, beauty, and pains of first love."

— Libraryofamisfit I. (4/5)

Amazing book

"The writing was fantastic, I haven’t read hundreds of books or anything but I’ve read a few and this was to me the best writing I’ve ever seen, it was so descriptive and deep, it was explicit but it wasn’t done like some books where it’s really surface level and that’s the whole focus of the book. I watched the movie before reading and the book is so much better, you see that Oliver actually reciprocated the deep emotions and it wasn’t just lust like it seemed in the movie, and contrary to popular opinion I do like the ending even though it was a poignant love in Elios life and he does still hold some feeling for Oliver, it’s realistic and I find just a good way to end the book showing that Elio did forgive Oliver and they didn’t rekindled their relationship. The only reason it’s not 5 stars is because some of the characters felt unnecessary like Vimini, the author just had her interact with Oliver and she died and I guess that was a reason for Elio to contact Oliver but I don’t know it just seemed random."

Is it better to speak or to die?

"My heart aches with nostalgia, summer, personal identity, lifelong love, and what could have been. I don’t know how I will ever move on from this book."

— Mira (5/5)

Amazing

"I love this story but the cover is just the movie poster, and I feel like having more creative covers would be cool, but this is already amazing."

Call me by your name book review

"I’ve already watched the movie but I wanted to get the book because I loved it so much so I can’t wait to read it. Since it’s very different from the movie I’ve heard but maybe even better."

— Booklover (5/5)

"It is a literal piece of art. The writing style, the dialogue, everything makes it so different than any other book I've read. Aciman keeps you on the edge, with your curiosity peeked. By the end of the book you're rendered speechless. Heartbroken but somehow you will find it surprisingly beautiful!"

"This was an amazing book with a. Interesting story that kept me interested throughout"

— Adam (5/5)

There is no shame in youth

"When reading this book I felt so aligned with Elio, the story follows 17yr old Elio falling in love with an older man, Oliver when he spends a summer in Italy with Elio’s family and inevitably gets crushed when Oliver has to go back to the United States. Call me by your name depicts perfectly how it feels to fall for someone who is so much more experienced than yourself and the insecurities that come with that. It is a beautiful young love story."

— Mgbh (4/5)

Such a beautiful & accurate depiction of love

"I've listened to this audiobook twice now (and read along with my physical copy) and it's still just as beautifully written & narrated as the first time I listened. The only thing that threw me off a bit the first time I listened was that the book is written from Elio's perspective and narrated by Armie Hammer who played Oliver's character in the film. That wasn't a bad thing either, it just took me a minute to get used to it. Aciman's understanding of the intricacies of love is incredible. Never before have I read (listened to) a story that I felt I could relate to on so many levels. How love is a beautiful, tragic, heartbreaking, heart-wrenching, lovely, awful incredible, powerful emotion that never really lets go of us. This is a must-read, I hope you enjoy it."

"The book is incredible. My wife [Elizabeth Chambers] calls it the sexiest book she’s ever read. It humanises love in a really powerful, beautiful way.”—Armie Hammer, Time Out (London)

“I loved the movie…and the book completely blew me away!”—Marc Jacobs on Instagram

“I finally read André Aciman’s deeply moving novel Call Me by Your Name, racing to do so before I saw Luca Guadagnino’s (sublime) movie adaptation with its sensitive screenplay by James Ivory—and I adored it.”—Hamish Bowles, Vogue.com (Best Books We Read All Year)

“Superb...The beauty of Aciman's writing and the purity of his passions should place this extraordinary first novel within the canon of great romantic love stories for everyone.”—Charles Kaiser, The Washington Post Book World

“An extraordinary examination of longing and the complicated ways in which we negotiate the experience of attraction....It's startling that a novel so bracingly unsentimental—alert to the ways we manipulate, second-guess, forestall, and finally reach stumblingly toward one another—concludes with such emotional depths.”—Mark Doty, O, The Oprah Magazine

“This novel is hot...a love letter, an invocation, and something of an epitaph....An exceptionally beautiful book.”—Stacey D'Erasmo, The New York Times Book Review

“If you are prepared to take a hard punch in your gut, and like brave, acute, elated, naked, brutal, tender, humane, and beautiful prose, then you've come to the right place.”—Nicole Krauss, author of The History of Love

“A great love story...every phrase, every ache, every giddy rush of sensation in this beautiful novel rings true.”—Michael Upchurch, The Seattle Times

“The novel is richly, sensuously detailed...luminous....Aciman deftly charts a burgeoning relationship that both parties want and fear.”—Karen Campbell, The Boston Globe
