Classic sci-fi is not a great genre for me. Always need to preface my reviews with that :)

I think I must have listened to an abridged audiobook of this because it didn't really take very long. This might explain why it felt rushed or undeveloped. Rick seemed to develop feelings for Rachel Rosen during only his second meeting with her; this annoyed me. I don't like it when people develop relationships ridiculously quickly particularly when it's not plot-driven (ie quickly developing trust when you're forced to depend on one another).

I liked the premise; I would have liked more of the history of the world and why the androids need to be retired (I'm assuming it's because they are property).
