That movie still stands the test of time as one of my favorites. The story of a robot with a soul who becomes a lonely kid’s best friend fills me up in a way that’s hard to put into words.

As a library worker, I’ve developed a system for deciding which books I buy and which I only check out from the library. I start by borrowing the book from the library. If I do like it, I don’t buy my own copy right away. Instead, I think about it for a while.

While I read for many different reasons, one of my favorite things about reading is falling in love with fictional characters. If they’re not real, they can’t hurt you, right? I kid (sort of). In all seriousness though, there are so many endearing book characters out there, and reading gives us an opportunity to really understand them. Authors place us into the heads of their characters, so we grow to know them well over the course of the book.

There are some books you pick up that you find fitting the exact genre niche you’re looking for. You may not even realize you’re looking for them until you stumble upon them. This is exactly how I felt while reading Farah Heron’s Remember Me Tomorrow. I like so many different genres that it’s hard to pin me down on my favorite, and this book checked off all of the boxes. As a missing-persons mystery set at a college campus, it promises a hint of dark academia.
