Title: Just ok for me
Review: I loved The Remains of the Day and so decided to read Ishiguro's other books. I was really rather disappointed. I expected and hoped for the subtle intricacies and fulfilling storytelling I got from The Remains of the Day, but didn't quite get it. Of course reading the story still left me with high regard for the author's imaginative and narrative abilities, but I felt disconnected to all of the characters and the story moved slowly for me. I will say this book is way better than Ishiguro's When we were Orphans, which I found almost ridiculous. Great writer, but I think he had it right with The Remains of the Day, not quite with this novel.
