A review by halfpotato_halfcheese
The Children Act by Ian McEwan

4.0

Hits on so many topics in such a short amount of time. Characters aren’t strongly drawn out, due to the length of the book, but you still have a great understanding of them as a person and their habits. You’ve seen similar characters before and can relate to them. My favourite part is how court processes and cases have been depicted in such an interesting way. You feel like you are there and are captivating. Even after reading this I am still feeling torn about the judgement which was handed down and all the “what if’s” possible in these situations. Worth a read!
