The novella format does a lot for this story- it can focus on the action and not get (too) bogged down with worldbuilding. The murderbot is certainly an interesting narrator and the plot came together nicely.

Pretty jargon-y, but had some interesting world building. Pretty light read. Interesting ideas about bot consciousness and the social issues therein.

Does a good job balancing small stories with the larger Murderbot plot. They're definitely an odd character, but I'm invested in what happens to them!
