The Warm Machine by Aimee Cozza

When a robot built for construction work first sees an angular, sleek prototype military robot slink onto the base he's working outside of, he immediately falls in love. The problem is, only anomalous bots understand the concept of love, and the lowly laborbot has not deviated from his default programming once. So he thinks, anyway. When the laborbot is scheduled for decommission, the military bot cannot possibly live without him, and the two bots set out on a path to find the fabled anomalous robot utopia Root. COVER ARTIST: Aimee Cozza PUBLISHER: 9mm Press YEAR: 2024 LENGTH: 196 pages  AGE: Adult GENRE: Science Fiction RECOMMENDED: Highly Queer Rep Summary: The main characters are robots, likely closest to aro/ace but those terms aren't quite applicable.

Animorphs Book 27: The Exposed by K. A. Applegate

A force interferes with the Chee and the #Animorphs must race the clock to find the Pemalite ship. Meeting Drode, we learn how much Crayak hates Jake & is fascinated by Rachel. Rachel's claustrophobia is more pronounced, Tobias braves the water.

I'm appreciating how much more complex Rachel is, much earlier than I appreciated previously. If you had asked me when Rachel's character became more complex I would have named a book we haven't reached yet. I'm excited, because I liked the later parts of her storyline from previous readings, so it's nice that I'm appreciating the earlier sections this time through. Tobias and Rachel's friendship/relationship moves along a little, but they haven't reached an equilibrium yet and it's still uncertain where things will end up.
