Today I finished We need to talk about Kevin. I absolutely loved it. I had to break off to read the McEwan at the weekend, but couldn't wait to get back to it. I never saw the end coming, though looking back I suppose I should. I loved the way it was written all in letters and the way Lionel Shriver really brilliantly described Kevin and all his oddities growing up. Thank you all for recommending I read this, it was fascinating. I am eager to read more of her books now, as this was my first. Shell.
