I've read the chapters on Simon and Klara. I'm now at Daniel. Is this as good as the book gets because I'm finding it pretty boring and would like to quit while I'm ahead ;) ?

Is the author of The Immortalists really the author of those other lifestyle and fitness books, or just shares the name?

But, I did appreciate the thin line that Klara was always on...sanity and insanity, magic and reality, the dead and the living. She also alluded a couple of times that she was sort of a bridge between the family she was born into and the family she had created. I think she could hear and see in a way that others could t because she had accepted that life wasn’t just what you could see, hear, smell, touch and taste. I think Simon’s is still my favorite chapter but the more I think about Klara (and Daniel and Varya) the more I love the book as a whole. (less)
