Another varied month of reading. My favorites were Other People's Children, The Night Fire, and Anthem (no, not Ayn Rand, be serious). Have you read any of these?Klara and the Sun by Kazuo Ishiguro (2021) – Klara’s destiny is to accompany a needy teen home as a companion and she is hand-picked by Josie and her mother because of her unusual empathy. This was a Book Group choice that started out well but turned out to be only so so. My mini-review.
