Title: Birdsong
Review: I really enjoyed this book but am between three and four stars on it. Perhaps if I hadn't heard such rave reviews or known that it was Number 13 in the '100 must reads of all time' (BBC The Big Read) I might have had no qualms about giving it four stars, it's just I'm not sure it quite lived up to my expectations which had been built very high! However, it is a lovely read and I will definitely read more Sebastian Faulks books after this. I would recommend Birdsong - it is easy reading and gives a real insight into what it was like living through the war and actually in the trenches, without being too heavy or too graphic. There are a couple of different stories going on and it keeps you interested. Worth a read!
