We Need to Talk About Kevin

I have to say that at the beginning of the book I did not think I would even finish the book. I made a concerted effort to plow through the first 100 or so pages. Once I caught on to the style and accepted it as an essential part of the book I began to enjoy it for the literary aspect as well as for the story it was trying to portray. This is a story about love, the lack thereof and about our deepest feelings and emotions. I don't know if I would ever read another Shriver novel (not my style) but I am certainly glad I read this one.
