3.0

I will read more Ishiguro in the future maybe never let me go next but I’m not super excited as this being my first novel from him. I kept waiting for the other shoe to drop but till the end I was just barely holding on. 
I was not very emotionally vested into the characters. His exploration into the views of artificial intelligence, while compelling, falls pretty flat even with an analysis on love.
