A review by jess_mango
The Children of Men by P.D. James
3.0
From the book description, this sounded like a book that I would love, so I was excited when it was selected as the discussion book for one of my book clubs.
The book gets off to a slow start and goes into great depth into the mind of the main character, who is rather unsympathetic and not very relatable. None of the other characters are relatable either and we have no insight into what motivates them. The ending was disappointing (and was a very different ending than the movie version).
