I'm a huge fan of Sophie Cousens' books, so I was very excited to read her latest book. I am happy to say I loved it.
The idea of being able to create the perfect boyfriend is oh-so-tempting. And after seeing what some singles are going through, I would probably be open to try it too, if they were as realistic (looking) as Rob. I admit, it still kinda weirds me out - but I know the appeal is there for a lot of people. I think the way it was handled in the book was actually pretty great. It showed a lot of the good/bad sides, and brought up excellent thought between viewpoints.
Chloe broke my heart a little bit in this book. I sympathized with her feelings of big dreams in college, and then having reality gets in the way and discourage you until you end up in a rut. I loved her journey, and how the people (and AI) were able to help her and support her in her career and self esteem.
John was unexpectedly wonderful and I even liked Sean. I'm a little miffed about the 10 years of silence though.
Overall I loved this book.
I adored reading the little bits about Oxford, and reminiscing about my own trip there.
However, I could do without the existential crisis I'm now facing regarding where the world of robotics is headed.
Thank you to Netgalley and the publishers for this eARC in exchange for my honest review.
