Doug is a misogynistic, racist, manipulative POS and I wanted to throw this book across the room I hated the character so much. I felt so much pain for Annie.
If you liked the first season of Westworld you’ll enjoy this.
What a roller coaster of a book, some things I would’ve fleshed out more (maybe more Annie w/ the techs?) but enjoyable and really made me think.
Eerie to think this is the future we’re heading to, and seeing how people treat other human beings I can’t imagine how they’ll treat AI robots.

- Plot- or character-driven? Character
- Strong character development? No
- Loveable characters? No
- Diverse cast of characters? No
- Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated
The premise had me interested, but it didn’t really go anywhere. Most of the book was unbearable interactions with a misogynistic man, and a robot-woman who doesn’t have any other choice but to talk and do much more with him. I was hoping for a twisted (maybe vengeful) ending, especially since the rest of the story is already pretty dark.
