This is my favorite of the first 4 books. I think the humor is more apparent and the narration not so deadpan. I liked Miki a lot and the questions/thoughts Miki raised in Murderbot.

A great book - Murderbot's adventures are reminiscent of Asimov's world in iRobot, beautifully told from the perspective of a robot that has gained independence and instead of going off on the suspected murder spree, chose to start watching TV series.

I had an emotion.

Needing to be alone to process emotions is such a realistic characteristic.

Brb crying in the club at the ending

Loved this as usual! Though I will say the story felt less fleshed out than the first two. Despite being around the same page length, I feel like Martha Wells covered a lot more ground in the others than in this one, and I can't exactly say why. Maybe because Murderbot wasn't interacting as much with people (outside of Miki) for the most part of the book?

Really liked the dynamic that was explored between Murderbot and Miki and how their experiences as bots/constructs differed so much from each other

I found it a little repetitive at some points with other Murderbot plots and found myself skimming over some details. But once the plot got going (about 1/3 of the way through), I was just as hooked as ever

5.0

In which Murderbot learns more about trust, friendship, corporate greed, and the philosophical implications of humans creating sentient bots and androids.
