REVIEW: Interview With the Robot

Interview With the Robot
Author: Lee Bacon

Eve isn't the typical 12-year old girl. After being arrested for shop-lifting, she calmly explains her actions and her background to a child welfare worker. Eve has no parents or family. Never had a last name. Doesn't eat. Doesn't drink. She's a robot.....and on the run.

I listened to the audio Audible Original performance of this story. The full-cast performance was quite entertaining and fun to listen to! The story is definitely geared toward middle grade age kids, but still enjoyable for adults. The portions of the story about tech concepts and robotics are simplified and not very realistic.....but this is a fictional children's story, not a tech journal.

The voice actors give a great performance. The length (just under 4 hours) makes this an easy listen. I had a great time listening to Eve tell her story while doing laundry, cooking and cleaning at home. The story definitely brightened up a rainy, cold Monday!

Very entertaining story!
