I dont think I've ever read a book quite like this. Books/movies about robots aren't unique per se but something about this book, something about Klara, was very special and touching to me. I thoroughly enjoyed it and was very intrigued by the story. It was also a surprisingly emotional read at the end, I definitely shed some tears. Some great writing!
