This book was funny, interesting, and surprising.  Murderbot is hilarious and awesome!  I really enjoyed its POV a lot.  
This book was skillfully written - the way it flowed felt very much like what you’d expect from a book written from the POV of a robot.   

It was just REALLY damn good - and at only 150-ish pages, why not give it a go!  Would recommend to anyone who enjoys sci-fi and is looking for something a little different and interesting!  

My one things is the clearly sentimental human part of me wanted him to stay with Dr. Mensah and the team🥺  But I hope Murderbot finds where It is happiest! 
 
I look forward to finishing this series!
