TJ Klune always creates these wonderful, lovable and authentic characters, and I don‘t know how he does it, especially when the characters are not even human.
This book explores humanity in a setting in wich most of the characters are machines and really made me think about the Concept of humanity and what even defines us as human.
At first I was not so much taken in by the idea of the story because it seemed somewhat lame, but as I got closer to the characters and their bonds and the complexity of it all, it really got to me, as much as „Under the wispering door“ did.
