This pulled me in at the first line. Seriously, the opening line is great! It immediately felt like something out of the Murderbot Diaries universe, the writing and worldbuilding style is similar so that got my attention. (I definitely think The Murderbot Diaries is better though).

The plot is kind of weird, it's funny, and there are philosophical elements as well. The plotline isn't overly complicated and there isn't too much technical jargon, so it was easy to get into and comfortable to read, especially because it felt familiar since I've read similar things before. I didn't love it, but I liked it enough that I added the sequel to my TBR. 

If you like The Murderbot Diaries by Martha Wells, The Martian by Andy Weir, or similar books (space exploration, dry humor, etc.), you will probably enjoy this too!
