A review by tehani
The Mad Scientist's Daughter by Cassandra Rose Clarke
5.0
A quiet character piece at heart, backed by science fiction on a semi-dystopic, grandly domestic scale. I really enjoyed the slow reveal world-building and the unfolding character growth. There are similarities here to Tanith Lee's Silver Metal Lover and Asimov's "Bicentennial Man" – what does it mean to be human, and what humanity can androids take on?
I read this as a Kindle ebook, and was a bit disappointed in some of the formatting errors, but either I'm getting used to such things, or the book was simply good enough for them not to impact on my reading experience as much as they usually do. I loved this book.
