Boot is a robot that needs to find his owner, Beth. But when he escapes Flint's scrapyard he is left with only 2 and a half memories and is left alone to unscramble the half memory.

It was sad. It was good. He found out the owner didn't really love him.

I love this book sooo much! It’s a great book that always left me on an urge to keep reading! My only regrets are that I read too fast, and that I hadn’t gotten it sooner☺️.

My favourite character in this fiction book is Boot because he woke up with only 2 and a half memories in a scrapyard and in his memories there's a girl and he thinks she's his owner and is determined to find her and go home.

I wasn’t so sure about this because I didn’t like the character ‘Flint’, because he wanted to crush boot. But I liked all the adventure part in it. I like adventures in books.

My favourite part of this book is when the robot applied for a job in the restaurant and he destroyed everything. My favourite character is Boot because he is really funny and always does things wrong.

Boot was a robot toy. When he re-booted he started to feel emotions and got a mind of his own.

Boot is very cute and has a really cool adventure. He has two and a half memories and has no idea where he is going! If you like action, adventure, drama, and funniness, you should read this book.
