On Chesil Beach - Ian McEwan

I wanted to read Atonement before I saw the movie, but that didn't happen. Ever since I've been meaning to read his books and this was a happy 50 cent book find. I found it to be more like a character study, or an extended short story, than a novel, but I enjoyed it. It was refreshing to read something that is about characters and their interior lives rather than about advancing a plot. I look forward to reading more by this author.
