A truely enjoyable quick read. 
Murderbot was an extremely relatable main character, I also would like to spend my whole day watching my favourite shows and don't like people looking at me. The other characters were also good, it's always nice to read about competent characters. And I loved how diverse they were and things like polyamorous marriages were just mentioned in a short sentence, really shows how common they are in this world. 
Even though this short novella didn't focus all to much on the wider world building, there were enough mentions of politics and technology and such to show it really is a fully fledged out setting and I'm looking forward to reading the other books in this series and learning more about it.

I have absolutely no expectations about this except there's a murderbot who wants to watch TV shows?? I was not prepared for how hilarious and relatable and exciting this was 😭😂 So yep. That's another fave for me 😂

I loved this book! I read it all on one day, which is saying something because I don’t typically read for hours on end. It definitely felt similar to Becky Chambers’ stuff (which I also love). It was a great mix of funny and serious, with an interesting perspective from a socially awkward Murderbot who doesn’t like people. This novella was well written with a strong voice and strong plot, and I can’t wait for more!
