The Children Act by Ian McEwan



The Book: The Children Act
The Author: Ian McEwan
The Publisher: Doubleday, 2014
The Acquiring: Goodreads Giveaway -- Bound Galley (Not sure what that means) in September sometimes.


My Thoughts:   At first, I was really excited to start reading this book. I have never read Ian McEwan before and I won it as a Goodreads Giveaway as a pre-sale copy. I started reading moments after I opened the package but after about 25 pages.. I could have easily just put it down... and then I wasn't too eager to pick it up again... hence why I'm so late reviewing it.

Not that I didn't like it... but I just didn't care.. It's like when you watch a TV show because there is really nothing else on. I just read it to read it. I feel like if this wasn't Ian McEwan without his reputation... it would be just another book on the self.
