The beginning and end sections of the book are definitely the most interesting. 

Klara is so sweet and gentle and following her story could be a little stressful sometimes because I was worried that reality would come swooping in a ruin her heroic efforts to help Josie. 

I like the manner in which Ishiguro blends the mystique and beauty of love and sacrifice with the more sombre and bitter reality of loss and grief.
