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. Gender is also not an important factor. THE WARM MACHINE plays with ideas of friendship, connection, and searching for utopia, all through the lens of a construction robot who falls in love at first sight with a military bot....

Clear Your Shit: A Traveler Appears! (Recommended)

Being both physically and emotionally exhausted, we decide to set up camp for the night. I'm not even bothered that we have to sleep on the ground again. I'm still too annoyed at the Wizard and his strange behavior. As we are settling in around the fire a traveler, Sammie, she announces in a chipper tone, pops in from the shadows. I'm a little skeptical and keep my tooth club in reach, but she offers us a book in exchange for a chance to rest for the evening. She thrusts Fledgling by Octavia E. Butler at us and is practically vibrating with excitement. This seems like a fair trade to me and my interest is piqued at how excited she seems so I find a nice place to relax near the firelight to read.
