I had an emotion.

Needing to be alone to process emotions is such a realistic characteristic.

That was one [] of a ride. I love the parallel between the relationship between murderbot and Dr. Mensah and the relationship between Miki and Abene as well as how that contributes to murderbot's decision at the end. The book kept me hooked the whole way through and though I was a little confused at some parts I think it's due to how I was opting not to reread parts for clarification so I could read faster lol. Teared up at the ending. This was such a meaningful part of the murderbot diaries and has cemented the fact that my favourite part of this series is the conncections between characters.
