A solidly meh read — this book just isn't for me. I have no big feelings about a person's essence or soul. And I'm generally ambivalent to the role, present or future, of AI. What's left, then, is a story that takes its sweet time unfolding, with characters that are hollowly observed, and a protagonist that is intentionally detached. Just a whole lot of nothing for me to latch onto.
