Dear rasw:ers,
Just finished ME: A Novel of Self-Discovery and hereby I give it 3 out of 5.
Strong beginning, a story about an AI who goes on a journey of self- discovery. But the book does not feel very polished, annoying port addresses and ultimately boring descriptions of reasoning that take away from the story.
I also feel the self-discovery could have been focused on a bit more, and I think it ends in a kind of trivial and abrupt way.
3 out of 5. Will not read again.
I think I'll return to 70s and 80s science fiction for a bit. Next will either be More than human, or some good, old cyberpunk from the 80s, possibly early 90s. We'll see.
Let me also wish you all a pleasant evening and happy reading!
Try the book that I just reviewed, "Shards Of Earth". I have not read books 2 and 3 yet so I cannot verify that they are good also.
And the Murderbot Diaries.
