 I LOVE MURDERBOT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! So satisfying to have a nice long chunky story about everyone's favourite antisocial security bot. Way more action packed than the previous novellas and a lot more techno babble - which often confused me especially since I was listening to it on audiobook while cross stitching. Also at times the plot confused me, only cause there was so much more going on than usual so I had a bit of a hard time keeping track. The other downside for me was that I felt like the resolution with the Targets finished up too neatly? Like it felt like something was missing, or that there wasn't enough explained about how it was wrapped up?? IDK maybe that's just me.

Regardless I super enjoyed this and I really hope there will be another long Murderbot novel in the future.
