Ohhoo, what an action-packed story it was - reuniting with old friends, complaining about humans, sarcasm, strange emotions, badass fighting and near death situations. Seriously, I have been waiting for this!
We are back to help out the "first" crew (Dr. Mensah, specifically) and Murderbot, who definitely doesn't care, sure does a lot to help these humans. I was so giddy to see the reunion!
Even though Murderbot itself wasn't sure how to refer to them, ART had already planted the seed that PreservationAux was Murderbot's crew, that these were Murderbot's humans. And they are!
I was having an emotion, and I hate that.
It was fascinating to see Murderbot's internal (emotional) struggles and to see it want to win against GrayCris purely out of spite. (In hindsight, that wasn't a very good idea, but it was successful, so... I'll take that.) That did lead us to some very unfortunate circumstances in which Murderbot almost deleted itself out of existence (I blame it on the wonky risk assessment module), which would have had me sobbing at 3 am. (Guaranteed.) Thankfully, things turned out MUCH better, with everyone intact, but perhaps some were changed and some even a little broken.
It would have been hilarious if I wasn’t about to die. It was still a little hilarious.

it's got murder, and intrigue and space fights and friendships. and most importantly, it's got murderbot - in all it's antisocial glory - slowly finding its way and warming up to all the humans that support it.
all the characters are so incredibly lovely and lovable and the books are so sensible and wholesome in the most mature way ever. sometimes i get bursts of emotions that are almost physical.
