  • Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

4.0

I really enjoyed viewing the world through Klara's eyes, her wonder and rationalisation were an incredible study. The unpredictability and unreliability of the characters was also heightened by this perspective which I found engaging. 
The story felt loosly engaged and lucid which was refreshing to read. 
Ishiguro writes beautifully but this lacked the intense emotional pull I would need for a 5 star read.
