I tried to like Lara, but after she physically abused Ronin I couldn't stand her. Even if he was technically a "robot", he was a robot with feelings! She also hits her nurse who made sure she survived from her wounds. Her life story was truly sad, but her actions were questionable.
Despite the unpleasant characteristics posed by Lara's character, I was determined to uncover more about Ronin's story, which ultimately kept me engrossed in the book.
Ronin's character was the highlight of the story for me! The way he was portrayed and developed throughout was so captivating that I found myself completely immersed in his journey. Although the romance element was present in the story, I couldn't help but feel that it took away from Ronin's character, who was strong and interesting enough to carry the plot on his own.
The way the story concluded completely shattered me emotionally, leaving me in a state of uncontrollable tears!

I devoured this book. I really like the story and the lore. Plot is NA, though main character is a bit YA. It was mostly fine, but occasionally she acted far too young and immature to be taken seriously, but the rest of the cast did take her seriously do that was a bit weird.
The bots were great. Especially the reoccuring ones. They're all very unique and a lot of fun.
