I don't know the full story of exactly what's going on in the book but it reminds me a LOT of Never Let Me Go (same author) which is a little disappointing, just in how similar it feels both in pacing, science fiction tilt, keeping a lot back/ shrouded from the reader in terms of what's really going on. It's almost like he had an idea for a novel, and couldn't decide which direction to take it, and then decided on Never Let Me Go, and now later he's decided to flesh out the novel in a different way with Klara and the Sun.
Like I said I'm only halfway through so someone else who has finished it might laugh at me and tell me I'm off base.
I loved Klara. It broke my heart. I haven't read Never Let Me Go so I can't compare them.
