asiachudzik 's review for:

Atonement by Ian McEwan
4.75
dark emotional sad medium-paced
Plot or Character Driven: Plot
Strong character development: Yes
Loveable characters: Complicated
Diverse cast of characters: No
Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes

i absolutely adore the film and the book was (obviously) also incredible. i wish i could have read it before watching the film. the descriptions of war in particular were incredibly detailed, although at times really challenging to read (not because they were poorly written, but due to a difficult and gory subject matter).
