À propos de cet audio

In 2068, androids are an integrated part of human life. Big Brother no longer just watches from the shadows. It's in every household.

Lloyd Salter has OCD issues with noise and mess, and he's uncomfortable with human interaction. When his ex claimed the only thing perfect enough to live up to his standards was an android, Lloyd dismissed it. But two years later, after much self-assessment, he thinks he may have been right.

SATinc is the largest manufacturer of androids in Australia, including the Fully Compatible Units known as an A-Class 10. Their latest design is the Synthetic Human Android UNit, otherwise known as SHAUN. Shaun is compatible to Lloyd's every need; the perfect fit on an intellectual and physical basis.

But Lloyd soon realizes Shaun's not like other A-Class androids. He learns. He adapts. Sure that SATinc is aware Shaun functions outside of his programmed parameters, Lloyd must find a way to keep Shaun safe. No one can know how special Shaun is. No one can know he's evolved.

Contains mature themes.

I loved it

I was hooked from the start and although it was predictable I just couldn’t stop listening. I think it was the love and romance. For some reason they just pulled my heart strings hard enough to keep me listening. I definitely recommend this audiobook!

Strangely Delightful

It's so weird, but I really liked this book. I was a bit scared to read it, not knowing what to expect, but I found Shaun so endearing.

Surprisingly wonderful

I was apprehensive about this one, it had been sitting in my library for quite a while as I kept glancing over the synopsis and chosing something else. NOW HOWEVER, I know that its actually such a good story! I think it's well written and very captivating. And at some point I may have cried real tears. I definitely recommend it! I may even go buy a physical copy of it

Guilt Inducing. for all the right reasons

Is it just me or does Shaun possess more personality in his little finger than most humans out here have in there entire body?

Beautiful love story and insightful and creative ideas about AI

I loved both characters and the story so much. I had put off listening to this even though I love the author and narrator very much. I didn’t think the story would appeal to me, and I couldn’t have been more wrong. I loved it all!

No OCD

The author uses the trope of "OCD" but doesn't actually know what the disorder actually is. It could have been a good book if they had actually used it, but instead, they went with the colloquial definition of 'they just like things *really* clean and *really* precise'.
There is a scene (in the first few chapters of the book, so no spoilers) where the android prepares the guy his dinner, basically a microwave dinner, and he doesn't watch in anxiety or hide biting his nails or such, He's just chilling, then checks it out to see if it's done with his precision. This Is Not OCD.
Someone with OCD has a Compulsion that drives an Obsession and they would get anxiety if that compulsion is not followed. I mean, there is variation, but that is the basics.
It sure would be nice if an author would do some basic research into a disorder before they wrote a book with a major plot point based on that disorder! N. R. Walker is doing a Major disservice to the community by misrepresenting the community this way.
I highly recommend reading "Turtles All the Way Down" by John Green or "Beard with Me" by Penny Reid for a more accurate read on OCD
