Might as well start with this - what did you think of Ishiguro's subtle treatment of the key issue? Legolas Send a noteboard - 18/10/2010 06:34:58 PM
Did you figure out early on what was going on? And if not, were your guesses far off? What were your feelings when you finally discovered what it was all about? Did you like being kept in the dark for so long?

The book, not the novel? Camilla - 18/10/2010 06:07:08 PM 742 Views
Me type fast... me not read what I type. *NM* Jacob - 18/10/2010 06:11:19 PM 319 Views
I have just discovered that I loaned the book to someone recently as well. Rebekah - 18/10/2010 06:27:52 PM 701 Views

Are we talking the fact that they were clones? Chas - 18/10/2010 10:39:25 PM 850 Views
I may not be all that good in figuring such things out, but it wasn't so evident to me at all. Legolas - 18/10/2010 11:06:00 PM 809 Views
I say that now, but that's after I was spoiled. Chas - 19/10/2010 01:29:29 PM 741 Views
I can understand that. Rebekah - 19/10/2010 01:35:41 PM 691 Views
I figured it out almost straight away. Rebekah - 19/10/2010 01:33:17 PM 758 Views
Re: What was the other book? Danae al'Thor - 03/11/2010 09:35:01 PM 902 Views
It was called Spares. Rebekah - 03/11/2010 09:58:02 PM 819 Views
Re: It might be YA literature. Danae al'Thor - 03/11/2010 10:00:50 PM 736 Views
I had it mentioned to me before I started reading Camilla - 02/03/2011 11:24:14 PM 810 Views
What did you think of the characters? Legolas - 18/10/2010 06:43:22 PM 774 Views
Ruth was a bitch and other quick summations. Chas - 18/10/2010 10:34:17 PM 702 Views
I find it difficult to sympathise with these characters and I wonder whether that's deliberate. Rebekah - 26/10/2010 03:56:34 PM 824 Views
Must revise that feeling now. Rebekah - 31/10/2010 02:52:25 PM 712 Views

Since Chas is making me wonder... What did you think of the book? Like it, love it, hate it? *NM* Legolas - 18/10/2010 11:13:55 PM 329 Views
And I'm officially overusing the phrase "what did you think". *NM* Legolas - 18/10/2010 11:14:15 PM 342 Views
Crap. I hope I didn't come across as too negative, because I loved the book. Chas - 19/10/2010 01:33:57 PM 821 Views
Love it. Rebekah - 19/10/2010 01:36:26 PM 720 Views
I liked it (with some exceptions) thebestrob - 20/10/2010 09:55:26 AM 900 Views
I thought of The Island, too - same premise, very different approach. Legolas - 20/10/2010 04:42:48 PM 816 Views

Right. A better answer, now that I've got the book and have refreshed my memory. Rebekah - 26/10/2010 03:53:58 PM 792 Views
Did you just compare Robert Jordan's writing style favourably to Ishiguro's? Camilla - 02/03/2011 11:20:46 PM 761 Views
LOVED. Jessie - 16/11/2010 03:52:09 AM 643 Views

What do you think of the idea of growing cloned humans for donations? Rebekah - 31/10/2010 02:53:25 PM 717 Views
Uncomfortable is putting it mildly. Legolas - 03/11/2010 10:12:43 PM 816 Views

Miss Lucy, Miss Emily and Madame. Rebekah - 31/10/2010 02:56:27 PM 740 Views
You kind of have to wonder how they sleep at night. Legolas - 03/11/2010 10:17:36 PM 839 Views
