When android Mech6.0, saves the life of a handsome hardware engineer, her body is destroyed and her mechanics discover a glitch in her programing. Androids aren’t not meant to develop unpractical reasoning or near-emotional responses…let alone fall in love









Review:

In my opinion, everything Marissa Meyer writes is going to be good. I really liked Cinder, Scarlet was even better, and Cress surpassed them all. I had VERY high hopes for this very short novella.
First of all, as I said above. This is really short. And because the story is short, this review is going to be short.
I read the novella in probably 15-20 minutes. And enjoyed every minute.

Android Mech6.0 has a "glitch" in her programing. That pretty much makes her more like humans than the average android.
I liked Mech6.0. I found it enjoyable to read her story. I thought that Marissa Meyer did a great job in letting you get to know a character, and fall in love with a character is such a short amount of time.

There is a cameo of Cinder around the middle of the novella which I enjoyed a lot. I was hoping for more cameos, but that probably wasn't possible anyways.

The story is very straight on Little Mermaid. Very cute and fun. AND THAT ENDING!!! Did not expect that.
If you love Marissa Meyer's books, and if you have at least read Cinder.....Then I would definitely recommend this one!

Do you like Marissa Meyers books? Would you read this novella? Let me know!
