Loved the projection of the titular SecUnit's feelings on to the experience of another bot. Great characters as always from Wells.

First book in the series without a clear or present antagonist, which makes for some nice twists.
Murderbots relationship to Miki is fascinating.
This is the Murderbot novella that feels the most forgettable to me. It's not bad, but partially it's that it has the most action in it, which is fine and good but isn't really what I'm here for. I do like that it establishes that there are still dangers out there for Murderbot, even as it is wildly competent in its own domain.
When I’d called it a pet robot, I honestly thought I was exaggerating. This was going to be even more annoying than I had anticipated, and I had anticipated a pretty high level of annoyance, maybe as high as 85 percent. Now I was looking at 90 percent, possibly 95 percent.
The best part of this book is Miki, the human-form bot that Murderbot can't help but be irritated by. Miki ends up being a great foil, especially around Murderbot's feelings of not-jealousy …

i think i need to go have an emotion in private now. #Justice4Miki
Murderbot continues to be the most relatable, charming, action-packed and yet still somehow emotionally poignant series of books about an exhausted ex-slave semi-cyborg who just wants to be left alone with its TV shows but keeps getting dragged into situations where the only good choice is to set aside its own comfort and put itself at risk to protect others... And if that doesn't have you interested in this series, man, i don't know what to say. (^_^)

This was my favorite Murderbot book so far. The fact that so many robot characters in this series are incredibly wholesome reminds me a lot of the video game Stray. It’s a refreshing change of pace from the terrifying stories where robots turn on the human race.Â
I can’t wait to read the next one!
