Sorry I haven't written in a while. The book I'm reading at the moment is pretty thick, but I am slowly getting through it and will have a review soon.
I'm glad there are finally some new books I can tell you about. I couldn't find any last week that I wanted to share. This week we have a new book by Ian McEwan. He is the author of Atonement, which was made into a movie with Keira Knightley.
The year is 1972, Britain is facing hard times with industrial unrest, and Irish terrorism. Serena Forme is a mathematician and the daughter of a Anglican bishop. She has a brief affair with an older man during her last year at Cambridge, then being a smart and beautiful women she soon finds herself being groomed for the role of a spy for MI5, the British intelligence agency.
Serena is a compulsive reader of novels and for her first mission is sent undercover into the world of writer Tom Haley. First she falls for his stories then finds herself starting to fall in love with Tom himself. The first rule of espionage of course to trust no one, and Serena has to remember to keep her identity a secret and beware of those who may be trying to deceive her.
