Never Let Me Go by Kazuo Ishiguro
4.0
challenging emotional mysterious reflective slow-paced
Plot or Character Driven: Character
Strong character development: Complicated
Loveable characters: Complicated
Diverse cast of characters: No
Flaws of characters a main focus: No

I liked the story and it was easy to follow. I liked the omninous vibe in the beginning of the book. You know that something is not being revealed to the kids and us, as the readers. I think this strengthens the message and the reveal. This books offers some beautiful descriptive scenes and depiction of emotions. 

Even though I liked all of the characters and the character dynamics, I didn't feel super connected to the main character, Kathy. I don't know exactly why. I think this is a personal issue. 

In short, it is a beautiful story worth reading!
