Two complaints: that these books are too short (would prefer if sooner if these shorter ones were combined as a longer one), and keep ending without closure. I guess that’s why I’m now about to start the third book…

On my journey to reread the series since I haven’t read the latest installments and wanted to refresh myself on everything.  This one was used to develop more background and history of Murderbot, as well as introducing a new bff, more friendly humans that produce emotions, and also some insight into different constructs.  It felt more like a bridge for what comes next since it was setting up quite a bit.  Still an enjoyable romp.
