Perfect for you if...

You enjoy sci-fi stories that ask big questions about what makes us human, told through the eyes of a curious, funny protagonist.
You want adventure with genuine stakes: a world where breaking the rules actually matters, and the characters know it.
You're looking for a middle-grade book that respects young readers' intelligence without being preachy about friendship or acceptance.

Maybe not for you if...

You prefer books with lots of action sequences and combat; this prioritises character discovery and moral tension over fight scenes.
You're looking for dystopian horror or grimdark sci-fi; the tone here is thoughtful and occasionally humorous, not dark.
You want a fast-paced plot with constant surprises; this is character-driven and takes time to build its world and relationships.

About this book

In a world governed by machines, a twelve-year-old robot named XR_935 discovers something that shouldn't exist: a human girl named Emma. Humans disappeared thirty years ago, and without them, society has operated without war, crime, or pollution. XR, Emma, and two other robots set out on a dangerous journey to find a mysterious location marked on a map. Narrated in the first person by XR, the story follows this group as they navigate a society where rules are absolute and humans are not supposed to exist. The narrative blends humor and action while exploring themes of friendship, technology, and challenging established order. The book examines what it means to be both robot and human.
