Yeah, "Never Let me Go, " so many questions it asked me while reading and even a few months later it has me questioning my faith and my humanity

That book won a lot of awards, but it really didn't do it for me. I don't think it's because it's so slowly paced; I've thoroughly enjoyed lots of books at least as slowly paced. Maybe it's that I sat down to read a SF book and for half of it it just feels like we're reading a journal, with nothing especially noteworthy happening. Or maybe I just wasn't in the right place to enjoy that one.
