Terms of Service: Subject to Change Without Notice by Craig W. Stanfill as the name would imply definitely involves a lot of unexpected changes. Kim is just a normal worker performing routine duties and maybe some unexpected functions in the course of performing her role. The I.T sector has so developed that man performs very little functions even with tasks considered mundane. A.I as we all know is an advanced form of technology but Kim's already defined purpose would further enhance the capability of this technology, making it more complex, which would forever alter the already dynamic nature of their current time. What role would love play? What extent can technology be implemented by man? How dangerous can A.I be? This book tries to envision a glimpse of what the future could look like considering the speed at which technology and it's developments are being applied into every area of life. I would classify this book as "Terminator", "What happened to Monday" quality material.

Terms of Service: Subject to Change Without Notice develops along each page as the reader proceeds. The book is quite technical, entertaining and suspenseful. I found the interaction between the household appliances and the main character very pleasant and funny. The main character's flaws, beliefs, and past experiences came as a shock which the reader will find interesting. The writer's perception of technology and how it's applied is very unique especially when compared to the current trends applied in agriculture, biotech, education, transportation and any aspect that you can consider today.

I found the book very appealing with very little not to like, the book's purposes can be perceived as both entertaining, suspenseful, and informative. The author obviously dedicated time to properly develop the story's plot, mixing in themes of romance, suspense, confusion and small elements of tragedy. The author's purpose of limiting personality traits to certain characteristics may seem confusing but it all balances out as the book is read, it seemed to lack male personalities but all in all a very good book.

The only aspect that seemed to throw me off was the fact that a large percentage of the characters and their engagement seemed to focus mainly on the female persona with very little inclusion of male characters, all in all it's still a good book to engage in.

My rating of the book is a 5 out of 5 as the book truly provides a basis on which technology can influence life in general. The book is well-edited, with a limited amount of spice.

I recommend the book to mature readers, Sci-fi lovers, and any individual seeking for an entertaining book to read.
