If I am being honest I don't really have anything to say about Never Let Me Go; I was largely unaffected by the book. One detractor for me was the fact that the narrator would meander through the story and tell it in a somewhat disjointed manner; it became confusing at times. However, that being said, I was really pleased at the depiction of the main character Kathy H. She narrated the story for us and was a completely believable female character. I think this is quite an accomplished from a male author seeing as most female characters written by men are just clumsy and ill-thought out.
