Never Let Me Go by Kazuo Ishiguro
4.0
When I first saw the trailer for the movie, I decided that I would really like to read the book before the movie came out. From the trailer, I had grasped a little bit of what the movie was about.
It took me quite a while to really get into the book, but once I did, I was so captured. I wanted to know what came next and what happened to the characters, especially Cathy and Tommy.
The book has a really refreshing take on the sci-fi genre. More just hinting at than actually making it a full fledged sci-fi book. I like the quiet subtly that it has and, again, although it was kind of slow, the story is so tragic and dark that you can't help but love it in the end.
