matmatmatty 's review for:

Klara and the Sun by Kazuo Ishiguro
4.0
challenging emotional hopeful
Loveable characters: Yes
Diverse cast of characters: No

I feel like I have so much to say about this book, and yet I am struggling to put it onto words.

This is the story of Klara, from her POV - she is an Artificial Friend (AF) and is powered by the Sun. 

Her role is to be a companion and when she is bought by a little girl, she finally gets the chance to do that 

There is so much in this story and I finished it feeling very bittersweet. It is a "happy ending" but also a very sad ending. But I think it really works for this book
