I guess you can’t tell a story from the point of view of something that you don’t think has a point of view.
Murderbot is such a fun series to read and I find it very amusing. I'm glad to be back and, once again, excited for the adventures ahead!
This time Murderbot goes back to the mining facility where it went rogue to find out what really happened. Murderbot teams up with ART (aka Asshole Research Transport) and their duo is just perfect! I don't know what it is, but I was a tad sad to see them go their separate ways. I do hope that we get to see ART again in later installments!
For my entire existence, at least the parts I could remember, I had done nothing but accept the inevitable. I was tired of it.
Murderbot is undoubtedly more human-like than before, it has a personality and to some extent even a moral compass. I love reading about it's thoughts and opinions, how it becomes a human - always evolving and growing as a person. And still as relatable as ever!
Sometimes people do things to you that you can’t do anything about. You just have to survive it and go on.
It's been a while, since I started this book and truth be told, I don't remember the beginning that much anymore, only bits and pieces. The ending was definitely a quicker and more enjoyable part, but I'm not sure why the beginning was such a struggle, since now it seems like a really great story. Ready for more in the future either way!
There was a huge difference between knowing something happened and seeing the reality of it.

this second novella reads a bit like a side-story. Plot-wise it was very thin. I’ve got the feeling this series would be better suited to be read as a novel.

It took me slightly longer to get into this one, but I think that's because I was still, like, mentally gnawing on the first one.
