 Categorizing as Cozy because the overall message of acceptance and kindness; there def is sci-fi stress and some violence.

I think Murderbot is a great representation of autism/neurodivergence, they felt very relatable and familiar (to this neurodiv person). The LGBTQ representation is great amongst the human characters. Wells does not mess around with plot, the story rapidly develops along with character progression, with moments of tension, compassion, and cleverness.

Thoroughly enjoyable and entertaining, I'm hooked and can't wait to finish the series!
