I didn’t like this either! I did a search on all the blogs I read to try to find someone else who did not like this book! Glad I’m not the only one.

I try to find something likeable about McEwan yet his latest novel seems to be another insight into his unpleasant voyeuristic indulgences

Someone else who doesn’t like Ian McEwan! I thought I was the only one.

I’ve read so many blog reviews about this book lately, I almost feel I’ve actually read it myself. But I haven’t. Yet.

I just read the book too! I didn’t find it too graphic though. I probably have read books that are way more graphic (and still liked them). Anyway, glad you joined the challenge. Good luck!

I liked the book, but I can see why it might not be everybody’s favorite. Thanks for the chance to link to your great blog.

I haven’t read the book, but given your comments, I’d probably be with you. Graphic sex is rarely well done and I normally end up skipping it if it goes on too long.

I listened to the audio version and I did not care for it either, which surprised me, given the positive reviews.
