Solar by Ian McEwan

I read this book January 2014

From books donated to the charity bookshelf where I work

I have read a lot of Ian McEwan's books and it seems to run that I like/dislike his books in turn.   I don't know what it is, but some I really like and others, like this, leave me cold.

It's about a scientist working on Global Warming... being as I work in a Science lab with the researchers doing roughly the same thing this book just didn't 'ring true' with me.  The lifestyle was much more the corporate world  than scientific one I encounter.  It was just long-winded and a chore to read I'm afraid.

Maybe the next one I pick up will enthrall me, who knows?

3/10 - just my opinion
