Sal, a sapient robot, has been running the Cybernetic Teashop for almost 300 years. Clara, an AI technician, has spent her career studying sapience and the ethics of the now-outlawed sapient AI. Together, they bring us tea, love, rain, grief, endings, and beginnings. It’s cozy in the way a rainy day is cozy—just a little sad, but also thoughtful and sweet. A beautiful 89-page afternoon read.
