I have absolutely no expectations about this except there's a murderbot who wants to watch TV shows?? I was not prepared for how hilarious and relatable and exciting this was 😭😂 So yep. That's another fave for me 😂

I've read this novella series six times. This is my favorites series of all times. Murderbot is my favorite main character of all time.

Murderbot is a SecUnit, a security unit trying to save the humans it's been tasked with protecting from an unknown group determined to kill them all. As a rogue, most think it would go around killing humans randomly, but Murderbot didn't like doing that. It likes protecting its humans and consuming media, such as the soap opera Sanctuary Moon.

This is a mystery and a comedy set in space and starring an autistic coded, nonbinary main character trying to figure out what it wants while saving its favorites humans. I fucking love this book, and all of its sequels.

I loved this book! I read it all on one day, which is saying something because I don’t typically read for hours on end. It definitely felt similar to Becky Chambers’ stuff (which I also love). It was a great mix of funny and serious, with an interesting perspective from a socially awkward Murderbot who doesn’t like people. This novella was well written with a strong voice and strong plot, and I can’t wait for more!
