I liked the proper story element of this one, I much prefer it over the shorter story. Unfortunately, it was still a slog to get through, and I think it's because of two things: 1) there is too much tech/science details included and 2) because murderbot can think quickly and think a lot of things at once, the writing reflects this but it is hard to follow and you just need a lot of concentration to read these books, and I don't have a lot to spare 😅

YESSSS MORE ART! I still really enjoyed this book, but it was a bit of a slog at some points. I think the novellas work a lot better for Murderbot stories.
