Mech6.0 / Star:

I was so impressed by this quick retelling of the little mermaid in a sci-fi setting. I also thought it was a creative spin--to have the voiceless mermaid translate to an android without vocals

From a short story about an android who develops feelings and falls for a human! She gets a new body but it doesn’t have a voice box AND the guy she’s in love with is in love with someone else AND her new body is going to run out of power after which she will die

I must avenge Linh Cinder- Half joking, I just thought it was an interesting twist on the Little Mermaid story

It's a really cool and creative retelling and the character is really likeable. The story can be read as part of the series it accompanies or on its own but if you love imaginative, romantic (in terms of tone, not romance) sci-fi, this is great.

**The Little Android SPOILERS ahead**

Okay so in The Little Android ending, Star disguised herself as Miko and died on the spaceship just after takeoff. Imagine Ochida Kenji finding her instead of her daughter. HE WOULD'VE FREAKED OUT AND FAINTED

She pinched the card between her padded grippers and held it up. It was thin but stiff, like a sheet of aluminum, and on one side was scrolled in fancy, shiny lettering: Celebrity Holos, Collector's Set, 39th Edition, 124 T.E. She turned the card over and a flickering, pale holograph rose from it and began to rotate. She was looking at the likeness of a teenage boy who seemed vaguely familiar, with shaggy black hair and a relaxed smile. Mech6.0 felt her fan stutter in an odd way, and wondered if there might be something wrong with her internals. If this kept up, she was going to have to alert the maintenance mechanic.

“something about him made her unpredictable, and maybe dangerous, and she couldn’t exist in a world without him.”

Marissa Meyer. “The Little Android.”
