Klara and the Sun by Kazuo Ishiguro
Did not finish book. Stopped at 49%.
Did not finish book. Stopped at 49%.
Second try by after fist DNF 3 years prior.
DNF at page 150 .
While I can appreciate the writing a lot more the second time around I just do not care about the plot or the storyline . I love how robots are represented in the story and how they are helping humanity, but it feels very blank. I love Klara as a character.
I really love his writing style, and I do want to read another book by him in the future “when we were orphans” to see if I’m gonna like them more than this as I do find his work to be very readable.
I’m glad I gave it a second chance, but I just don’t feel like finishing a book when I feel like I’m gonna give it a two to a three star rating .
