I really don't know what to make out of this...

A story about a Harlequin (robot-like thing) working as a prostitute... Who doesn't want to get recycled. And a man who can't help him/her.

Was there romance? Not really!
Was it hot? Not at all!

Still, I think as a glimpse into a full length novel this would be something big and really unique. But it's just this shorty and so it feels uncomplete and... unsatisfying.

As much as I would love to give it more than 1.5 stars... I can't.
