![]() ![]() ![]() I especially liked Klara and Rick, who are bright, keen observers and always seem to have Josie’s best interests at heart. Rick, too, the British teenage neighbor who’s infatuated with Josie, becomes part of their world. Klara wants to be the best friend she can be to Josie and the two bond quickly. What is okay to know is that: the story is told from Klara, the AF’s point of view, and it captures Klara’s child-like, robot simplicity and keen observations as she comes to navigate the unfamiliar human world outside the store she’s purchased from. My Thoughts: I tried not to give too much away in the paragraph above as its best just to let the secrets of the novel unfold. But when Josie becomes sicker, Klara must think of a way to save her, even while agreeing to a plan - the mother has come up with - in case she doesn’t. Josie has a close friend named Rick and they plan to have a future together. ![]() Short Synopsis: Taking place in the near future, the story is about an Artificial Friend, or robot, named Klara who comes to belong to an ill teenager ( Josie) whose mother buys her as a companion for her daughter. ![]()
