This one was quite funny and I loved seeing the murderbot and ART interact. I'm also excited to see how the plot behind the murderbots's rogueness unfolds

Really liking this series thus far. If you’re a fan of short sci-fi books that have an awkward and anti social robot as the main character, you’ll like this.

This book starts right where the first one finishes. And like the first one it continues with great world building and (background) diversity.
Seeing Murderbot being free for the first time and figuring out what to do and what it wants, was cool. The reluctant friendship it has with ART was just amazing. ART being so bored at its job, that it decides to help a dangerous stranger is just amazing. In general, this book/series is so good in developing its non-human people and how they see themselves in regard to others and how they interact with each other.
It is also kinda funny to see how Murderbot feels awkward and unsure, but somehow all people it works with so far, really like and appreciate it. Murderbot continues being a relatable character.

My favourite of the Murderbot series so far. I LOVED the friendships and all the interactions between Murderbot and ART, especially both of them trying to understand human gestures.
"Yes, the giant transport bot is going to help the construct SecUnit pretend to be human. This will go well." (p. 71-72)
I was missing some of the wrap-up of the conflict from the first book so I'm glad we intermittently touch on some of the details here, especially the admin side of how it all gets cleaned up.
