I had a lot of trouble getting into this story. I think much of it was that I found the central romantic relationship between the two clones to be creepy. I have seen the trope before that "everyone wants to have sex with a copy of themselves", there was an SNL skit about it for instance, but I... just don't get the appeal. Maybe I, uh, am just too self-critical to want to have another me hanging around? Even if it was enjoyable in the moment, I can't imagine that it is psychologically healthy to have your mate be your genetic duplicate.
Realizing that clones are not going to be exact copies mentally, but, still, it feels like incest... but more so.
So the clear disintegration of the relationship did not fill me with distress the way that it filled the character. I thought that it was probably a healthy move, even if the protagonist didn't want it. I also didn't really grasp the distress over the protagonist's sense of religion. I guess I'm probably not the target audience for that one--I find that learning about more religions doesn't make me believe in anything less, more I feel that it broadens my understanding of how people as a whole can approach faith, and I don't find that broadening destructive to my sense of the spiritual.
The ending seemed kind of abrupt, didn't really feel resolved.
I'm not sure I'm the target audience for this one! I am very interested in other people's feedback, what they drew from the story that I seemed to have missed.
