"We Need to Talk About Kevin" pretends to be a look into the psycology of a teenage mass murderer, but it's really a low-rent Steven King horror story. Too long by at least twice, the book hinges on a plot device that would have made a great short story but isn't enough to sustain it. The characters are unconvincing cardboard cutouts, and the nerosis and narcismism of the mother so suffocating I found myself wishing he had killed her instead and spared us all this drivel.
