Atonement




By Ian McEwan

For years, I’ve heard nothing but rave reviews of this novel. It seemed a little too literary for me, so I never picked up a copy. However, after watching previews for the upcoming film and reading one glowing review after another (with each one mentioning a big twist ending), my interest was piqued once again. It is undoubtedly one of the best books I’ve ever read. I fell completely for the love story between Cecelia and Robbie and loved Ian McEwan’s beautiful writing style, fascinating characters and unpredictable plot twists. It was just a fantastic book, even though I must admit was hoping for a happier ending.
Can’t wait to see the movie now.
