 Overall Thoughts:
⁕ I get that Wells is trying to replicate the structure and style of crummy serial television, but she almost does it too well. As the second book in the series, the plot was practically identical to the first: Murderbot attempts to keep to himself, he gets attached to a group of humans and protects them from malicious forces, and then he must make himself scarce before being discovered.... predictable and boring!

⁕ Probably the most interesting development in this book was the inclusion of another AI. Seeing how another robot processed information and communicated with Muderbot was an interesting thought experiment in the potential future and capabilities of artificial life.

⁕ The ending of the this one was more open-ended than the first. I wasn't sure what the overarching goal/conflict was and didn't feel prompted to continue reading onto the third book.
