Captivating. Eye-opening. Powerful.

Annie Bot truly felt unique and had my attention from the very first page. In a world where Ai is dipping its toe in the waters of the world, this book makes me wonder just how close we are to a world with true Ai.

Annie is a robot created for the sole purpose of pleasing her owner, Doug, in whatever ways he sees fit. Cooking. Cleaning. Companionship. Cuddling. It is clear from the start that Annie is not meant to stay within the parameters created for her. Technology has created her, but technology is limitless. & when Annie realizes this she becomes unstoppable. Annie is a robot who has the capability to mimic human-like qualities. More often than not Annie felt more compassionate and introspective than most humans...her owner included.

Sci-fi is not my go to genre by any means, but I genuinely loved everything about this. The pacing, the pov and internal monologue, the fact that I never had a clue which way the story might go next. The only downside for me were a couple loose ends that never got tied up. I felt like the reader is left with a few unanswered questions. The ending was otherwise perfect. I went into this one blind & don't want to give too much away. Just know-this book is thought provoking and something I'd recommend to any reader! 4 stars.
