Klara and the Sun by Kazuo Ishiguro
4.0

3.5 stars

Thank you to the publisher for giving me a free copy of this book! All opinions are my own.

There’s a quietness and calmness to Ishiguro’s writing that I found really appealing. I loved Klara and her curiosity about the world around her. Her fascination with the outside world felt relatable to me after spending so much time indoors during the pandemic. We see Klara observing humans and studying their behavior, trying to understand the nature of humanity. It really made me wonder what another species would think of us. Would they consider us advanced, or primitive, or somewhere in the middle?

But overall, I’m not yet sure how I feel about this novel. I finished this book with so many questions, so excuse me while I go off to read some reviews and maybe find some answers!
