Overall really enjoyed how this one was written. Interesting facts about binary code and portrayed in a very futuristic way. Everyone jokes about robots taking over, what if that actually came true?

Herttainen kirja, jossa on binäärilukuja!!! Ja koska en muista aiemmin lukeneeni robotin näkökulmasta kirjoitettua kirjaa, niin tämä oli näkökulmaltaan kerrassaan hilpeän viihdyttävä.

The humans destroyed the planet and the robots took it back. For thirty years robots have ruled the world once infested with humans. They are efficient, productive, and always follow the directives of the Pres1dent. XR-935 is the perfect robot. Everyday he boots up, says goodbye to his family_unit, and heads to the solar farm with his coworkers. However, when he comes upon a life_form he's never seen before, one he thought was extinct, the hive directives don't make sense. The human girl, Emma pleads with XR to help her get away from the bunker filled with disease and loss to another location that might save her. XR knows that humans are evil. He sees the nightly download from the Pres1dent of the pollution, war, and greed humanity seemed to love. Yet, Emma is different. She is kind, funny, and gentle. XR decides to go against his programming, with his co-workers Ceeron and SKD, and go on a dangerous journey to help save Emma. Along the way they learn about friendship, finding your true purpose, and that humanity was worth saving. For those readers who loved The Wild Robot, this book is a must read.

A story about the last human girl and group of robots who try to help her.
I really don't get the hype around this book. I was so painfully bored the whole time. I appreciated the dystopian idea of how robots run the world because humans have become extinct... but all the rest was just so boring. Maybe if we got to know any of the characters better or the book had been shorter I would enjoy it more. I just didn't enjoy the execution of this one.

This gave me such The Wild Robot vibes and I was here for it. This has been a great month for middle grade reads for me. I actually got this one from the library because I failed at the Owlcrate Jr clues

XR_935 is an upgrade: a new robot born to advance robotkind and robot society. It is born into a world without humans, only the remains of human civilization. Until one day it finds a human girl at its worksite. And what XR_935 and its buddies decide to do next will change robot society forever.
Amazing.
Amazing.

I really enjoyed this middle grade sci fi story. It had Asimov vibes and I really enjoyed it. Just a nice, light story about the end of humanity...
