what a fun little read
it's hard to pull off a sardonic robot protagonist, and I think this did it

It's good fun. Was a bit shorter than I expected so the ending felt a bit abrupt (reading it as part of a Tor ebook collection so couldn't see how long was left). Murderbot's an interesting character, and the story from their point of view is interesting, especially when there are so many hours of Sanctuary Moon left to be watched. The problem of that perspective is it makes it hard to distinguish the other characters from each other, but overall it's an enjoyable read.
If a movie is ever made, Tig Notaro should play Murderbot.
Scifi you can't put down!
I haven't been so compelled to read since a teenager. Murderbot sucked me in completely.
