4 stars
In a future where artificial intelligence is the norm, Ben lives a pretty simple life with his wife Amy. Amy had started to become frustrated with Ben's lack of drive when they discover a strange robot taking up residence in their garden. As Ben becomes more attached to Tang he realizes that Tang is not a normal robot and may be running out of time. As he and Tang travel the world to find someone to repair robots, Ben discovers what it means to accept responsibility and act like a grown-up. I liked that this book is a simple story. There is not a lot of back story or world building and I never figured out if it is actually in the future or just an alternate reality, but it doesn't matter. This is a story about love and grief and acceptance and is perfect for summer reading. I don't know that I would have picked up this book on my own so I am so thankful to have received an advanced copy from the publisher in exchange for an honest review. This was a truly heartwarming and enjoyable read.
