This book was literally unputdownable for me: I read it all in one gulp, and then I was upset there wasn't more to read. There were maybe a couple of places where I stumbled—when it came to unveiling the main mystery of what happened at Ganaka Pit. I pretty much always slow down and re-read some of the pages when investigative plots roll in, though, so this wasn't so much a stumble as my usual reading pattern. The mystery itself was compelling, and the answers weren't what I expected.

My favorite parts of the novella, though, were centered entirely around Murderbot's interactions with ART. I don't even know which of these bots is my favorite at this point. I especially loved the scene pretty early in the book when they were watching tv shows together. I always love seeing characters in the stories I read interact with stories in their own universe, and in this case, there was some wonderful subtle discussion on the way stories shape us and impact us. 

Overall, I loved the story and can't wait to join Murderbot on its next adventure. I hope ART is involved, too!
