Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep-- Part 2

I enjoyed the second half of the book. Rick Deckard ended up retiring the rest of the androids that were on his list. He also changed a bit from the beginning of the book in how he viewed androids and his empathy for them. There was some interesting action when he fell in love with Rachael, the android, and slept with her, only to find out that she sleeps with all of the bounty hunters to keep them from retiring androids. The part where Isidore met the three androids and agreed to protect them and had empathy for them was interesting. He relates to them because he is treated the same because he's a "chickenhead." The book as a whole was interesting. I was surprised that I actually enjoyed reading it. I just felt that one bad thing after another was happening to Rick. I was upset when Rachael killed his goat. I do also wish the ending was a little better. I was hoping the toad would've been real!
