Book description
Alright, so I just finished listening to "The Little Android" and wow - what a delightful little gem! Marissa Meyer seriously knows how to spin a fairy tale retelling, and this one had me completely hooked from start to finish.
The story follows Mech6.0, this android who saves this gorgeous hardware engineer and basically has her whole world turned upside down. I mean, talk about your classic "I saved you and now everything's complicated" situation! The poor thing gets her body destroyed and then her mechanics discover she's been glitching - apparently falling in love isn't exactly in an android's programming manual.
What I loved about this audiobook was how Meyer took this familiar fairy tale we all know and love, but gave it this fresh sci-fi twist that felt totally natural. The narrator did an amazing job bringing Mech6.0 to life - you could really feel her confusion and wonder as she started experiencing these "impractical" emotions. It made me think about what it actually means to be human, you know?
The pacing was perfect for a short story - long enough to get invested but short enough to binge in one sitting. I found myself genuinely caring about whether Mech6.0 would figure things out, which is saying something for a story this length. Plus, being set in The Lunar Chronicles universe meant I got little Easter eggs that made me even more excited to revisit the full series.
If you're into fairy tale retellings or just want something sweet and thoughtful, this one's definitely worth your time. It's got that perfect blend of tech and heart that Meyer does so well.
