This was a difficult book to get into due to some of the language choices. It is written in the form of letters from Kevin's mother Eva to her husband Franklin from whom she has now separated. The letters start at the very beginning when she met Franklin. It talks about her mixed feelings about her pregnancy and the birth of Kevin.
Some people that once past the difficult beginning were absolutely gripped.
The bottom line is the debate about whether a child is born evil or conditioned that way due to failings on the parts of the parents.
Although you may think you know the end of the story, there was a definitely unexpected element which took us all by surprise.
The film stays extremely close to the book just as disturbing !!

This book was a tricky read to begin with, but I was absolutely gripped. Fascinating and terrifying all at the same time. Would recommend.
