Helpful Score: 1
The story is good, but sad. A tragic love story! A story of two people in love and not being able to be together. Torn apart by being falsely accused of a crime. And a little girl who has to live the rest of her life feeling guilty for something she did.
I enjoyed the story, but didn't actually care for the author, Ian McEwan. He goes on and on, page after page describing one scene and I felt like "get on with it already, I get the picture!" I, personally, just didn't care for his style of writing.
I actually enjoyed the movie better, however, the book did help me to understand a lot of things in the movie that would have been confusing if I had not of read it. I do suggest reading the book first.
