A Psalm for the Wild Built is by Becky Chambers. The first in the science fiction Monk & Robot series.

Then one day a restless tea monk decides to head into the wilderness to visit the ruins of an ancient library to search for meaning. Once in the wilderness the monk meets a robot, who agrees to join the monk and travel to the monastery, as it has been sent by its fellow robots to return to humanity to answer the questions "what do people need. Will the monk and the robot find what they seek? A charming thought-provoking novella.
