Title: Don't waste your time!
Review: I want a refund on my life! The first 4/5 is mindless dribble about a woman reliving her childhood, teen years, and early adulthood. They drop hints about some larger social aspects that you figure out if you are still paying attention and your brain's not numb. So in the last fifth of the book, Ishiguro decides to try and develop a plot and, surprise! it doesn't go anywhere. The only reason I didn't just stop reading was because I was hoping he would throw in some huge twist, this hope was based on the fact that SO many people gave it a good review. Anyone who gave this book a good review probably thought that reading this made them somehow more cerebral even though it was a huge ball of nothing. The premise made me purchase it, but the most interesting thing about the book is the synopsis. I appreciate subtle literature, but this was so subtle he forgot to include a story.
Is the review positive or negative?
