This has been the best book in the series so far. Mostly because humans here are not some random strangers Murderbot happened to meet along the way. There is less of them than in the first book so you get to know them better, you care about them, their personalities are more developed and every interaction between them and Murderbot is so precious and cute (I love how fierce Pin Lee is and oh god, Gurathin & Murderbot is a combo I can't get enough of). And I admit, I might have cried a little bit at the end <3
