3.5 stars.
The setup in this book is great. Character development, situations, etc.
But then it all wraps up too quickly. You can kind of see it coming--but it seems so absurd. But it is absurd. But how could that actually happen? Could it? McEwan's books always have somewhat out-there plots--but they are definitely things that could actually happen.
This one though? I'm not so sure. I rarely say a book needed more length. But this one does. A bit more depth of explanation before and after the final event.
