12 Books to Read If You Already Tore Through The Handmaid's Tale

An elite boarding school hidden in the English countryside teaches its students to believe that they serve an essential, powerful role in the future of the world. To some extent that's true; the school's students are clones of individuals living their lives in the world, and their purpose is to exist to give parts of themselves back to their creators, keeping them alive long after their time has passed. Part coming-of-age story, part tale of star-crossed lovers, Kazuo Ishiguro's Never Let Me Go is ultimately the story of the human cost of living forever — and of the heart and soul that exists in every single being on earth.
