G. Deyke reviewed Friends For Robots by Merc Fenn Wolfmoor
[Adapted from initial review on Goodreads.]
4 stars
Collections are always a bit hit-and-miss, but overall these stories were sweet and wholesome, with a strong focus on (what else?) friendship and robots. Most of the stories I quite liked; a few I loved; and only one did I really bounce off of.
Selling points: representation (queer, autistic, non-verbal, in various configurations), excellent robots all chock-full of The Need To Do The Right Thing, strong relationships, barely any romance.
Warnings: generous content warnings are provided for each individual story, in footnote form, easily overlooked if spoilers are worse than warnings in anyone's estimation.
