I loved Chime when I read that one last year! I had this one on my TBR list but I’m reconsidering after reading your review. I guess I’ll wait awhile and maybe grab it from the library sometime.

In reply to zibilee. He was a cool character. There was some stuff about how he worked as a cyborg that I wasn't so into, but the rest of the concept was so good I could have gotten past it.

In reply to Heather. Hahaha, I seriously almost added an addendum to this review to be like, But at least it's a one-and-done! Finding YA that's not part of a series is hard! However, if she does write a sequel about Otto I'd be very in for that.

In reply to NWK (@MumsyNancy). Okay, yes, but I am not a book character, which means you can tell me to hush up. I could not tell this girl to hush up. I also could not tell her to CALL THE POLICE when she gets attacked by a robot Inferius.

In reply to Alice. I keep remembering! Because my coworker was like "The publisher says I can have an advance copy of that," and I was like, "That sounds untrue," and it was untrue and now he's sad on many days that the publisher deceived him in this fashion. He's sad BUT I AM EXCITED.

In reply to Bookwyrme. Billingsley's Chime indeed.

Ok, I agree with you. The second story about Otto is the one that I would have been most interested in as well. It’s not right that this inferior story took over and shoved Otto out of the way. He sounds like a wonderful character, and though I probably won’t be reading this book, since you disliked it so much, I would really suggest that we start an email campaign to make the author write the Otto story.

I actually liked this one. But I can definitely see what you’re saying about Rose being annoying, and about how Otto’s story is the real story. I think there is a sequel happening, so maybe we’ll find out more about Otto if that’s the case.
