phenomenal_woman 's review for:
Sweet Tooth
by Ian McEwan
characters: Serena Frome, Jeremy, Tony Canning, Max Greaterex, Tom Haley
I was annoyed and critical of this book until the end reveal, and then conveniently (for McEwan) most of my criticisms were rather easily explained away by his metafictional con. I still found Serena annoying and her emotional reactions not always spot on. And the endless discussion of the political machinations of the day bored me to tears, but overall it was a cleverly constructed book, and the last third was a real page-turner.
