Started this on the spur of the moment and went straight through. I know there has been mixed reviews, but I really enjoyed it. It's an interesting concept, though hopefully not likely. I could see this as a full novel. ( )

The Dolls
by James Patterson & Kacia Bel
2017
Hachette/Book Shots
4.0 /5.0

The dolls were considered an excellent idea. A women designed to cater to your every whim. A woman who was perfect in every way, at everything.....well almost...there was one little flaw. They may decide to kill you.
Lana Wallace, an Investigative reporter has never covered a story like this. Its tricky when you learn so many secrets.

The dolls are robots with artificial intelligence. They are created to be companions and sex objects for wealthy men. However several of these men are being killed. Lana, a reporter who recently moved to Boston, has caught this story. She is trying to determine who is killing the men, but in doing so, she becomes friends with one of the dolls.
Interesting story on how far technology has come, and what may be possible in the future. ( )

I love these bookshots. Perfect for car trips or plane rides. I feel so accomplished reading an entire book in one sitting. This one was great, perfect for lovers of Westworld or the ideas of AI and what can be done with it. It wasn't hard to pick up on where they were going with the story, but kept me entertained and intrigued. I'd actually like to see another one pick up where this one leaves off. I really liked the characters and would enjoy reading more about them and following their stories. ( )

This bookshot is about a string of murders that involves the executives of a major robotics company. This story had some great potential in the beginning but it just went downhill fast. I really wanted to love it but it just didn't live up to my expectations. ( )
