Sweet Tooth by Ian McEwan
4.0

BRILLIANT. 4 stars because IDK. McEwan always makes me a little uncomfortable and a little bored, ok? And YET. I keep coming back for more. In Sweet Tooth, the story is enticing, and McEwan's classic genius insofar as ... metafiction, do we call it?... astounds me. Astounds. I loved this one, even if I did skip over some of the boring page-long descriptions of Cold War ins and outs. The ending more than made up for any hard feelings.
