Not having much time to read at the moment, I'm stressing badly about my dissertation deadline on 25th May 
But I have started reading The Post Birthday world by Leonard Shriver. I don't know if anyone's read We need to talk about Kevin (it's about an American teenager who's carried out a high school shooting, it's gripping and very moving), it's by the same author. I bought it in hardback as I enjoyed we need to talk about Kevin so much and couldn't wait for the paperback 
I'm about a third of the way through, it's about a woman who is on the verge of an affair, and it's been done similarly to that film Sliding Doors, where one chapter is if she does have the affair and the next if she doesn't and so on. It's very clever.
