My favorite was Another Day by Eva Holmquist. A nice short story about a hybrid (human-robot) who is used as a slave and her longing for a free life with the one she loves. – Carola Strömstedt

The short story is deep even though it is short & gives me the feeling of romance & science fiction vibes with a dystopian touch. – Patricia Lule Hamilton
