Nirei | 3 comments This is probably a long shot since I don't remember much. The main character is a girl, I think late teens? I read this around 2017ish. The book was probably written after 2005 or 2010. The AI/robot destroyed/got rid of all weapons except for melee armaments because (paraphrasing) if humans want to kill, it'll let them do it up close and personal so they can feel the blood. I don't really remember much else. The girl may have been kept somewhere against her will? The place she was is probably closer to an orphanage than a prison. I don't think the AI was physically present for most of the story. Also, I think the AI may have been more of a dictator-type governmental figure than an overlord/human-enslaver. There may have been clones involved somehow. Can't remember if there was a sequel or not. I think the author was a woman but not 100% certain.

Rainbowheart | 28620 comments It's long, but does anything on the YA Dystopia Novels list look familiar?
