adventurous dark emotional funny hopeful sad tense medium-paced

5.0

I really enjoyed this book.
The world building was fantastic, I could really imagine it. 
Robin was an absolutely amazing character, I loved seeing his personality develop. 
I will admit that Laura was not quite my favourite FMC, but the story/world/Ronin was so good that it didn't matter.

adventurous slow-paced

• Strong character development? Yes
• Loveable characters? It's complicated
• Diverse cast of characters? No

3.25

Things I liked:

• The world building
• The premise of robot and human
• Ronin, and all his sweetness
• The conclusion wrapping things up
• The exploration into bots being able to evolve into sentience

Things I did not like:

• Lara, and her temper of a 7 year old
• How slow the book got at times. It took me 6 days to complete this when I typically complete a book every other day
• Did I mention Lara?

There was a lot to love, and such a good premise, but when you dislike one of the main characters, it's very difficult to enjoy the book as a whole. Add on to that how slow the plot got over and over, at like 40% then preparing for the end at like 75%.
