Someone on Twitter called Murderbot “Janet from the Good Place, but with guns in their arms,” which is how I pictured them throughout this entirely delightful novella.

Great start to the series.

This was a totally fine little novella with some fun action and decent archetypical characters, but wasn't really anything more than that. I might continue the series just because they are so short.

I loved Murderbot, I wish this book had been much longer, and I want to read more about “it”/them.

Rereading the series since I have to wait on Fugitive Telemetry anyways. I forgot just how much I absolutely love Murderbot, I was cackling reading.

Short in the good way. Incredibly memorable character.

It's like what Droids should be.

Bot with simple needs
tasks to do, some alone time
no chit-chat, thank you.

For the Read Harder Challenge: A book in which an animal or inanimate object is a point-of-view character. I am considering a robot to be an inanimate object. Also, a book by a woman that won a literary award in 2018–the Nebula Award for Best Novella.

My gosh this was so much fun! The Murderbot's personality was more of a bored human's, than that of a killing AI machine
