+"All the Lovers in the Night" is a book about a young, shy proofreader in her thirties. 
 Fuyuko Irie, who is an introverted shut-in, rarely interacts with other people and keeps things quiet and to herself.
 As far as she can remember, all she ever did was work, get back home, somehow pass the hours before sleeping and go to work the next day.
 A solitary existence, void of contact with other people.

 All things considered, try to imagine yourself spending the last 14 years almost completely alone in your work or at home and then suddenly having the courage to confess to someone how you feel about them. 
 I certainly wouldn't have this kind of resolve to break through anxiety of the moment and the possibility of rejection from the other person.

+"Klara and the Sun" is a novel written by Kazuo Ishiguro. 
 Set in a far dystopian future, it tells a story about the relationship between Josie, a home schooled, genetically modified child and Klara, an artificial friend (AF) and companion to Josie. 
 It's a remarkable tale that tries to answer some of the most important questions we often ask ourselves:
-_What makes us human?_, _What does it mean to be human?_

 As a result, she treats the Sun like a deity, and believes it nourishes and takes care of everyone around her. 
 _I could understand that for all his kindness, the Sun was very busy; that there were many people besides Josie who required his attention._
 This is a recurring theme throughout the book, with Klara's unwavering faith displayed through her brave actions to help Josie get better.

 I particularly like the contrast between Klara's faith in the Sun's nourishment and the agnostic approach of Mr. Capaldi.
 It's a paradox which makes the reader question the nature of faith itself.

 Although the topic of the book is the abuse of a child by a grown man, it is written in such a way that we get to know Humbert and his personality really well. 
 Full of witty comments, funny observations and word games, you can forget while reading that the main theme of the book is so dark.

+The Island of Missing Trees is a fiction novel written by Elif Shafak with action set mostly in London and Cyprus and taking course over several decades between 1970s and 2010s.
 It is a book full of surprises and historical insights into that period of time, specifically the Greek-Turkish conflict over the Cyprus island.
 The main premise of the book, in my opinion, sends a message about how the actions we take in life echo across generations, and what might seem unimportant to us now can be defining in the future of others.
 Two main characters - Kostas and Dephne -  are from different parts of the island.
