Overheard a couple arguing about the ending of 'Klara and the Sun' at the library cafe
I was grabbing coffee yesterday and the people at the next table were really into it, one said 'the whole point is that love is a choice' and the other said 'no, it's about what makes a person real.' They went back and forth for like ten minutes. It made me realize how much a book's meaning depends on what you bring to it. Has your book club ever split down the middle on what a story was actually about?

Actually, those two people at the cafe might have been saying the same thing in different ways. The choice to love someone is a huge part of what makes a connection feel real, especially in that book. My book club totally fell apart over "The Road," arguing if it was about hope or just despair.

Our book club almost banned coffee after that one.
