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.

Clear Your Shit: Reading by the Spring (Free Book or a Break)

By the time the last of the sand fills the bottom half of the hourglass Heather and I have closed our books, satisfied at a job well done and a book completed. The elves haven't finished, but we can see the annoyance on their faces as they start to finish one by one. The leader stands with a huff but thrust out their and. I shake in in a sign of truce and watch them walk away, glad to be rid of them finally. I'm ready to get away from this place and keep traveling toward the witch's tower. I do not want any more surprise guests, Especially the wizard. We head out of the grove and just past the tree line I notice a scroll in the grass. The elves must have dropped it and since they are thankfully nowhere to be seen I unroll it. Finders keepers right? It appears to be a map, but I tuck it away for safekeeping and continue on. After traveling a surprisingly short distance Heather and I both realize how tired we already feel. It looks like there's another small band of tents in another clearing nearby. It appears to be a rest stop for travelers. How convenient. Chris, the proprietor welcomes us with fresh spring water and a comfortable place to relax as well as a small stack of books to read or barter for. I decide to do both and after trading a few interesting baubles I found on the road I settle in to read The Hate U Give by Angie Thomas. Another break sounds nice after the morning we've had.
