This book is beautifully written in my opinion and Klara is indeed a unfortunately narrator. The way she observes and views the world is extremely refreshing and so easy to empathize with!!
On the other hand tho there's the plot. In my opinion the book peaked in it's first parts and just got progressive more predictable and boring.
I would still absolutely recommend this book but it's not what I expected from an author that what the nobel prize for literature.
