wow

I wasn't sure what to expect when I got this book and I'm honestly surprised. the author did an amazing job creating a character that was innocent and naive without the character being annoying or stupid. the story was really good and in looking forward to listening to the next one.

fantastic

big fan of this book wasn't expecting much but it knocked it out of the park really hope you get this book and check it out

Loved it enough to binge it in two days.

This book really pulled me in, I ended up listening to it in two days and then immediately bought the next book (unfortunately, there are only two right now).
I really enjoyed Gell and learning about the world from her perspective.

The one negative is that the book ends rather abruptly with a bit of a cliffhanger. Fortunately, the second book picks the story back up well and is also very enjoyable. Book 2 also ends in a better place, still open for future books, but also providing a good ending.

great

ya made me cry please give me the 2nd book please thank you lol.

right in the feels

you really feel for the main character. such a well written story! Wish there were more if them.

An interesting take on emergent AI

The ending makes me think of Soma, and I want to hug Gell until the world stops.

This book really made me feel for its main character, and has a series of events driven by understandable and terrible emotions. The main character acting like a kid is genious, an AI just trying to understand its environment, and I just want to jump in and explain why she's been hurt.

Other reviewers think that just because the main character acts like a child, it's a children's book. Unfortunately, many of the things that happen in the book aren't so childish.

This book is criminally underrated. It's not the best book, I've read, but it's a solid 9/10. I'm almost afraid of what happens next, and the ending makes me think of a video game, Soma. I really hope Gell's code wasn't saved just for her to suffer a thousand deaths in other worlds, doomed to never understand what's happening to her.

So Much Better

This was so much deeper and more thought provoking than I thought it was going to be. The author did an amazing job of writing this character, and the book as a whole. It isn't a campy litRPG, it's a very accurate take on an NPC slowly gaining awareness, and the implications that a self aware computer construct would have on both a game environment and the real world. I loved it, and I'm about thirty seconds from downloading the sequel. Cheers!

the story is so unique

Not what I expected, but much more I'm so glad I pick this audio book. The voice actress did a fantastic job!!

Spur of the moment purchase that really payed off!

This was a great book and great narration. Something about how jelly was written really made me sympathize with the character and fell her highs and lows.

Amazing story

I am in love with the developing intellect that was the main character. Seeing her grow and learn was amazing. The ending was perfect and now I need the next book.
