David and Charlie are complete opposites. David has lots of
friends while Charlie is more of an outsider. When the school psychologist
determines that the two boys have detachment disorder, David’s parents enroll
him into a program to help him to learn human interaction skills. To do so,
they present him with a hot Companion bot, he can’t get enough of the
red-headed Rose. With strict relationship protocols, however, David gets
shocked whenever he tries anything. When Charlie and Rose meet, the two realize
that they can open up to each other despite her being real. Craving more, Rose
and Charlie try to figure out a way the two can be more sexually intimate. Will
the two succeed?
A very disturbing, inappropriate book. Although the
characters are interesting enough, the story itself leaves something to be
desired. Not recommended for any library collection. HS. No. Reviewer: Jessica
Moody, Library Media Specialist, Olympus Jr. High.
