Mechanical by Pauline C. Harris

You know you have a great thing going when you finish the story leaving the reader wanting more and you've left them with a soft cliffhanger and you have a trilogy planned. There is so much to love about this novel, the most important is that it's well written. This is one of those rare instances when I stumbled across this by way of a friend in Facebook who was a friend of the author.

The big question is what does it take to have a soul and what happens when man creates androids. Where do they fall in this equation. But this story has a bit more than that and a few twist along the way that, as a reader, I saw coming; but that just made the whole thing better.

Drew is young girl who is not a young girl because she's just been activated, or in this case reactivated according to her memories. She's set out on a mission for the Creator or creators in this case. She's everything that can be superior to her human counterpart. Or is she?

She and Yvonne have been friends for a long time, as much as a mechanical person can be friends, but this time things are different and Drew is having some issues trying to figure out what's so different with Yvonne.

She's soon going to find out there are things different about herself. And when she learns that humans have souls, something a mechanical can't have, she discovers the one thing in her whole creation cycle that she's ever wanted.

To go any further would give away too much of this story. The reader gets to watch Drew go through a transformation through the narrative that comes from her POV. There are many other moral questions posed to the reader that make this one good thought provoking novel.

This is listed as YA and it is a great story for YA but it's also great for all fans of SFF and as Pauline C. Harris matures into her writing she's going to give us some stuff that will rival such greats as Philip K. Dick and his classic Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep.

There is more to read after this one and all I can say is keep them coming.

The moment I read the blurb for this book, I was hooked. I haven't had the chance to read many books where the main character in a robot or an android so I was excited to get the chance to review this one.

I really, really adored Drew. I thought she was a wonderful protagonist, even though we don't get to see who she truly is until about half way through the book. Despite repressing some of the emotions she felt and things she thought but knew she shouldn't, she was never bland or uninteresting. She did what she was told to without question for a long time but I kept cheering for her and hoping that she would break out of her shell and do what she thought was right. It was also really funny at first seeing how confused she was at some of the words or phrases the "real" people said to her.

Michael and Jessica were also awesome. I loved how their relationships with Drew grew and how she slowly learned how to be human through them. Jessica and Drew were really great friends and they made each other better. I liked Michael and Drew together, too, but I just wish we had seen more of that relationship.

There were some things that were a little confusing. Like how Drew always talked about the "before". I never really understood how she could know Yvonne before she woke up until it was explained way later in the book. *Mild Spoilers* Also towards the end when the creators tried taking one person who wasn't an orphan. I didn't understand why that suddenly changed. *End of Spoilers*

Despite the few problems I had while reading this book, I liked it quite a bit. I stayed up late into the night to read it, anxiously flipping through the pages to find out what was going to happen next. Mechanical is definitely a book I'd go back to again to reread!
We follow android Drew through her assignment that is high school. I liked how her personality developed through the story but I would like to know why she started to have all those emotions she’s not supposed to have. We’re kind of kept in the dark about what the creators are doing.
A pretty female android is sent to a high school to perform a mission with no idea what that mission is. She suffers the usual pangs as most teens do in school, until she is told what her mission is to be. Good story line with even a romantic interest between our female android and a typical high school boy. Don't be surprised to find yourself rooting for our android in the various situations in the story.
