The Trio is about young college going people in Stockholm. The story is told through multiple POVs and I loved Thora’s the most followed by Hugo’s. It took a while for me to get into the book because it felt a bit slow and repetitive at the start but after the one third mark,I was quite invested. 

The writing is quiet and clean and there were several passages which highlighted some thoughts that felt so relatable to me. The things left unsaid in the book trigger certain emotions as the characters flit in and out of each others’ lives. Thora was an interesting character to read about even if all of them came off as a bit pretentious. 

The Trio,at its heart is about relationships and it has the vibes of Conversations With Friends and Normal People which is one of the reasons why I loved it since it scratches the Sally Rooney itch a bit. 

An emotionally intense book which felt very intimate
