A fun read as a palate cleanser/in betweener. Short and sweet with a very much on character end.

We dive deeper in Murderbots ‘’psyche’’ and discover what happened on the assignment where they became Murderbot. As a now free SecUnit they take on new clients to get to the planet where they were ‘’born’’. On the way there they make reluctant ‘’friends’’ with ART. I absolutely loved the snark between them. Murderbot is slowly becoming more human and even developed coping mechanisms. Escaping from reality by watching TV shows is very much a human thing to do. Murderbot is growing on me a lot and I’m looking forward to reading the rest of the series. 

I’m still very much confused how sentience and bots/constructs work in this universe so that’s maybe the only thing that is pulling me out of the story. Mostly at the start tho. Once Murderbot lands on the planet it’s all a wild ride.
