Pros
- Such a gut wrenching book.
- might not fit what you're looking for, but **We Need to Talk About Kevin** is the most chilling book i've ever read because it's so real.
- Having recently read "We Need to Talk about Kevin" and "Revolutionary Road" even though they have heavy themes about family and relationships, ironically, they made me look at my own life and realize that thankfully I'm no April nor Eva....
- Definitely a disturbing one, is We Need to Talk About Kevin. It's my all time favorite book and I've read it dozens of times, and will continue to. 😂 But you might like this! It's a book that makes you think. Really, really great and it...
- Well, normally for the theme of “motherhood,” I’d suggest We Need To Talk About Kevin. Fascinating, gripping story.
Cons
- Parent context: Well, normally for the theme of “motherhood,” I’d suggest We Need To Talk About Kevin. Fascinating, gripping story. Not exactly a cheery read, though. Haha. Reply: Jesus Christ, do NOT read this book OP
- It’s very well written. It’s an amazing book. But it’s definitely not a novel to read if you’re considering having children. I read it when I was pregnant and it was quite an experience.
- I'm not sure if this is strictly speaking horror, but *We Need to Talk About Kevin.*
- We Need to Talk About Kevin was like that for me
