Expect the unexpected from Penny Reid and her characters. Marie and Matt were great-- though one drawback to heroine-only first person POV is that the hero can be clearer than the heroine, ironically. Even though we're in Marie's head Matt is easier to "get" because we see him from the outside. Marie is described as so special but Matt seems more so just because it's hard to convey one's own specialness, you know? But other awesome things about this book include the seriousness of the conversations about AI and sex (and their intersection). Reid is always interested in "humanness" and that becomes really central here. Always an intriguing thoughtful writer--
