So disappointing as it felt like it could have been a lot better. Felt like it was building up to something but then it fell flat.

Reading a book from a perspective of a robot is definitely interesting. I really enjoyed how Klara described certain things and how the author was able to make her thoughts sound so intelligent but not like a human would think.

I loved this. Klara was such a beautiful narrator I adored her. The futuristic world that Ishiguro created was so interesting, I wish I could learn more about it.
