I’m a pretentious literary person. It was not my cup of tea. I really like other Ishiguro works but this was so simple and silly.

If you’ve read any fantasy genre staples, it pales in comparison. And if you like high-brow literary, it just feels childish.

There are some nice ideas and characters but weird to see someone I respect so much put out something that read so half baked

From what I’ve seen, though, I tend to be in the minority. Many others have thought it engaging and emotional.
