I, Robot has been on my bucket list for a while now and finally got round to reading it. It was different to what I expected, very dialogue-heavy and the language is definitely outdated (as expected for a book from the mid 1900s). Sadly, I had very little connection with the characters but the topics explored did feed the imagination, trying to problem solve what’s gone wrong with the robots in each chapter. I’m glad to have read it, but probably won’t explore the other titles in the series.
