The Buried Giant by Kazuo IshiguroMy rating: 3 of 5 stars
Honestly, I had a hard time getting into this story. There were elements I liked, and a few chapters I couldn't put down, but over all, I never became attached to the characters like I normally do. I suspect however, that this is a failing on my part and not the author. I think there were too many times I became distracted and just read the words without understanding the sentences.
I will say the end shocked me. I literally made a noise when I read the last sentence because it ended in such a way that I was not ready for it to end.
I think I'll need to re-read this someday to fully understand some of the artsy and poetic stuff I missed.
