Annie Bot by Sierra Greer

My favorite book of 2024 so far – A scifi novel that reads like contemporary fiction. Annie is a lifelike robot with AI that continues to learn how to be more human, and how to please her owner, Doug.

March 2024 Five Star Reads!

The three books that I rated five stars this month are all so different from each other. A magnificent rom-com, the first book in a paranormal series about immortals, and an American History book about Reconstruction and Jim Crow. This goes to show that reading books out of your “comfort genre” from time to time…

The Sunset Years of Agnes Sharp by Leonnie Swann
