All Systems Red by Martha WellsMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
Very fun book. I loved the strong narrative voice. Really loved the developing relationship and tension between Murderbot, assignments humans and humans in general. The world created is so rich, I could easily have read more. As is, this novella felt rushed to me, especially the climax, much of which was not given to the reader. It was the equivalent of “they put their plan into place, things halogens, and they were safe.” If the worrying and world hadn’t been so much fun, I probably would’ve dropped the rating another star because skimping out on the finale of the book feels a bit like lazy writing.
