Really interesting read. It gives you a lot of space to interpret certain moments for yourself. I definitely recommend. But mind that it surely is a slow read in my experience!

Fin, men føltes litt for urealistisk ut, med Klara som noen ganger var alt for smart og noen ganger for dum

Although I was a little biased before I started the book because I am sort of against AI, as I read I loved Klara.  Since I am autistic, I saw myself in Klara, in the way she observes people and tries to make sense of situations, and that made me love her more. It was a very well written and sorrowful book. And I'm glad that Klara faded away happily.
