Really enjoyed The After Wife and seeing the story through a variety of perspectives. I have no idea how close we are to humanoid androids of the type iRachel represents, but I found it interesting to see how she learned and grew during the experiment as well as how the human subjects she was interacting with grew and changed through knowing her. There were poignant moments, typically from iRachel’s perspective, but I don’t think it is as amazing as The Time Traveler’s Wife, which the publisher compared it to. While I found my head nodding and my finger dog eating certain passages, it didn’t affect me emotionally as much as that other novel, even when things changed considerably between the main characters. That said, I do recommend the novel.
