trinityofone'Cause I've clearly not been making the best reading material decisions lately, two book-related questions for y'all:
1. Do you know of any books that feature human-robot/android/cyborg/whatever romances? The only thing I can think of is Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep? but I know there must be others. Robot/robot love would also be interesting, I think.
2. Stealing an idea from![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
siegeofangels, rec me a book or books that starts with the same letter as your username. No serial killers, plz. Or, okay, no serial killer books unless they're really good. I'll rec one back, too, if you like. :)

William Gibson is good times but not very clearly written; I'd recommend Neuromancer and then see if you feel like reading any more. I can't speak to any of his recent stuff, though, as I stopped with Mona Lisa Overdrive.
