Never Let Me Go by Kazuo Ishiguro
3.0
3.5
The first half of the book is a tough chew. Kathy begins by reminiscing on her time at school, and recounts every interaction she has with her schoolmates in minute detail – making you feel like you're stuck in a conversation you don't want to be a part of. However, it is all washed down with Ishiguro's silky writing; and once you discover the horrible world they find themselves in, you realise he has been holding a mirror to you the entire time.
Pouring one out for my boy Tommy tonight.
