 I loved this so much. The disability representation, the conflicting identities a person can have, the journey to find yourself and self-acceptance -- oh and robots! Basically it had it all. And then there was an anticipation that kept building up the entire novel -- something was going to happen, Zelu was going to do something, and I NEEDED to know what it was. I was NOT expecting that ending but it was just so so good. Man. I loved it.
