While not a “bad” book, it was both predictable and elementary. The author was never quite able to make the characters or the emotional (artificial or sentient) tug-of-war feel authentic. The entire time I was waiting for a shift or detail that would anchor the plot but it never happened.

Having seen the film Ex Machina — this book feels like a surface level knock off thats both less compelling narratively but also trying to make a statement about women, feminism, patriarchy, and AI without committing to any of these statements with conviction.

There were many small loose ends and interesting plot point never examined. The ending lacked creativity and felt rushed and tacked on at the last second. I’m genuinely surprised by the positive reviews I read the influenced my purchase.

For the well-versed adult reader, it’s a pass but I do think this would be a good book for a younger audience being introduced to systemic, political, and social discourses regarding intimate partner violence, feminism, and our use of AI.

Not as good as I’d hoped… (no spoilers)

I loved this book! Through Greer's storytelling, she calls out patriarchal values and shows how many men would treat women when they think there are no consequences. Annie, being an AI droid, has no choice but to obey her 'boyfriend' (owner!), who deludes himself into thinking that she wants to please him because she is in love with him. He is rude and abusive to her and yet justifies this because "she is his property." This book is complex and I loved it and I appreciate the ending.
The only reason I gave the performance 4 stars is because whilst the narrator does a FANTASTIC job, I think she makes Doug sound more severe and harsh than the book would make him seem. I think her tone for him maybe should have been more subtle, which would show even more the every day normalized aggressions from men against women.

Loved this book!!!

I loved this book. It was beautifully written and challenging in the right ways. A superb character-driven exploration of humanity through non-humanity, but subtle and layered.

Really well done

It really does make you think about humanity. Is there a limit to how easy we should make our lives? How afraid are we of other people that we seriously think about replacing them in our lives with someone that can't say no. It was an interesting story staying on the safer sides of the topic. I did enjoy this book.

The topic of a sentient robot is very interesting

This book has an interesting concept. I'm still not sure if I liked it or not. I began to detest the fellow and she ended up looking like a typical abused wife.

Still not sure
