Obtuse, confusing, gripping and brilliant - but perhaps a little too brilliant for me: I have just finished it and I really have no idea what it was about. The fact that I still wholeheartedly recommend this book is a testament to the skill of this remarkable author. Light is not light reading, but it is certainly illuminating.

Finished reading: Annie Bot by Sierra Greer πŸ“š

πŸ€–πŸ€–πŸ€–πŸ€–πŸ€– (5/5 stars)

“She has been happy here, and anxiously miserable, but she has never been free.”

Its been some time since I read a book in one sitting, but Annie Bot was just that good. Brilliant, fascinating, and made me think a lot more than I thought it would. Hugely recommended, perfect summer reading (for those in the Northern Hemisphere)!

This was excellent, I will definitely read the entire series.

When I’m considering this I find it helpful to quote the wisdom of my father, who once told me, β€˜Who knows why the fuck anything happens?’

I found the dedication particularly moving too:

“In memory of Colin Ravey, because some people are too large to be contained by just the one universe.”
