This book is a pretty good read. If I had to summarize it in one word, I'd choose "disillusionment." Certainly, that's a topic as relevant today as it was when the book was written.

This book is quite entertaining and sometimes just hot. It's at least as good as any modern erotic novel, but the language used is quaint although sometimes surprisingly funny. I would have expected the sex in an old book like this to be boring and perfunctory, but to my satisfaction, it is quite varied. If you like the language of old authors like Austen or Bronte, and you like sex, you will surely love this book.

However, there were a lot fo* typos and leftover manually bro- ken* words, especially in the second half. (*intentional examples.)

This book was ok. I really was looking only for something short and moderately entertaining (though something more would also have been welcome), and "His Robot Girlfriend" delivered that for free.

One of my criticisms are that after the robot girlfriend arrives, most of the story revolves around buying her clothes and having sex. I can't understand why this robot needs so many dresses and shoes. Apparently robots are programmed to be insatiable consumers.

My second criticism is that there are some typos, grammatical errors, and things that seem like incorrect technical wording. The typos and grammatical mistakes might just be in the feedbooks version, but the technical mistakes are probably not. For example, the robot implies that her experiential memory can't be damaged or erased because it's "write only." If it's write only, how does she access it? Also, though I never heard of "write only" memory, because it can be written to, one could still erase or damage it by writing bad or null data to it.

Thirdly, I know the girlfriend is a robot, but does she really have to act like the perfect female slave that waits on her man hand-and-foot, takes care of him, and satisfies his every sexual desire? She really doesn't have much personality of her own; she simply behaves exactly as Mike wants her to (except when it comes to exercise, I guess). The fact that she babies Mike so much makes me dislike him for being such a helpless man. Someone reading this from the feminist perspective would have a great time ripping the story to shreds.

Anyway, it's a decent quick read if you're looking for some mild entertainment.
