This is my least favorite yet. I'm just struggling to find anything to latch onto with these books, to be honest. Muderbot as a character doesn't really interest me, so I have to be into something else. And the plot of this book was... coporate espianage? It just didn't really work for me. And the supporting cast changing up every book is making it even harder to get attached.
These aren't bad books! In fact, I would say they are good and a lot of people will enjoy them. I ust have high expectations for something so well loved.
