I like this book, but I didn’t have as much action as the first one. I did really like the exploration of how the bot thinks about themselves in terms of being human, artificial intelligence, being an object and a tool versus its own entity.

this second novella reads a bit like a side-story. Plot-wise it was very thin. I’ve got the feeling this series would be better suited to be read as a novel.

I love the dynamic between Murderbot and ART in this book! As usual, the plot of this had my emotions all over the place. But it was such a comfort to me to go back into this universe Wells has created. I can’t wait to pick up the next one and see what Murderbot decides to do!

Murderbot, my beloved 😭
It took me slightly longer to get into this one, but I think that's because I was still, like, mentally gnawing on the first one.

I love ART, it reminds me of another ship bound AI character I love. I think Murderbot calling it an asshole is in character, but probably not an accurate assessment. I'm not convinced we've seen the last of ART. I enjoyed seeing Murderbot realize it still enjoys helping clients, I wonder if we'll see more conflict over what it thinks it wants versus what it thinks its been trained for. Is it what it *really* wants?
