I think this one was even more emotional than the first!  Poor Roz has been taken from her island, and now she has to work on a farm.  Thinking about a robot having to make these emotional decisions of whether to leave to find her family or stay on a struggling farm where she knows she's helpful is really gut-wrenching.  I think most humans would struggle with it, and I suppose that's the point.

It was interesting to see how humans viewed robots and how normal robots are in this futuristic society.  I'd love to know more about these futuristic farms, although I feel the author did a wonderful job with the world-building.    

I can't wait to read the third book!

It was a whole lot of nothing, but the snowball fight sounded fun.
