Why read it?
1 author picked I Heart Robot as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
I was expecting the quintessential and stereotypical forbidden romance, and instead, what I read was one of the best explorations of humanity (in its various forms) I’ve ever encountered.

From Dave-Brendon's list on speculative fiction by South African authors.
