There is a gripping love story involved that much I can say. And that does make it hard to talk about. Review continued:Ĭertainly I do not want to include any spoilers. The students are taught the importance of being very healthy. Their teachers are called guardians, they have no family, and they know one day they will leave Hailsham to become donors. Students at Hailsham are taught nothing of the outside world. Thirdly, the final part shows Kathy as a carer. This is a transitional housing area where there are also veterans in residence. Secondly, we see Kathy and her two closest friends, Ruth and Tommy, living in the Cottages. The first part is Kathy reflecting on her childhood at Hailsham, a very different kind of boarding school in the remote English countryside.

The narrator is a 31-year old woman who is a carer in England. But one thing I know for sure, it is a haunting story. Even I am having a hard time deciding whay genre it should be. For instance, it has been considered science-fiction, quasi-science-fiction, sci-fi thriller, mystery, horror, fantasy, dystopian and a coming of age story.

After reaading it I can totally understand why.
