It just feels nice to hop back into a Murderbot book. It's kind of like checking in on a friend and seeing what shenanigans they've been up to, and I got to see Dr. Mensah and the rest of that crew from the first book again! Throughout the book, Murderbot continues its process of figuring out what it wants and who it is. It also reevaluates its relationships with humans and those that could be considered "friends" (quotes because I'm not sure it's quite ready for those deeper feelings). 

"I didn't know what I wanted (I still didn't know what I wanted) and when you're told what to do every second of your existence, change is terrifying." p.128
