The New Republic by Lionel Shriver

[purpleme12]

I don't know if anyone's read this, it'd be interesting to know

But it must be the most boring book ever. (Perhaps I've read one as boring and shit in my life but not for years)
I did not care about the book or any of the characters

How can someone who wrote such a good book (we need to talk about Kevin) write such boring rubbish

I haven't read this one but but have read almost all of her others. The one I thought was truly dreadful was Double Fault.

I think with some of her books it becomes too obvious she is trying to fabricate a novel about a 'trend' in society.
