This was a very interesting novella. I found the human characters very flat but the murderbot was such a good characters so it evened it out. I would definitely read further into the series .

I actually love that murder it is still awkward. This could have easily become that murderbot somehow turns into an action hero which it still might but there is nothing charismatic about this murderbot and I think it’s great character building .

I know this is a lot of people’s favourite discworld novel but for me it just didn’t land the same. It’s definitely a more serious book and it just didn’t keep my attention like others have in the past. Did it have a great ending and some very powerful moments yes. I prefer the ensemble cast of Discworld and this was very much centered around one character. I am so sad but what can you do.

“The last thing we observed, as we left the spot, was Giraud, crawling about on all fours, with a thoroughness in his search that I could not but admire. Poirot guessed my thoughts, for as soon as we were alone he remarked ironically:
“At last you have seen the detective you admire—the human foxhound! Is it not so, my friend?””

Building the barricades and Carcer is coming more into the plot. I know the revolution will have a bad ending but this is just sad.

I feel a bit dumb because I could not appreciate this book... I was so hopeful to fall into this amazing world... but for some reason I feel a bit disappointed. I couldn't follow the story and half of the time I was completely lost. However, I am not giving up! Maybe next one is better...

Loved this. It’s very much the vibe of cursed bunny and if you loved that you will love this. Only wanted more and would have loved more on the workings of the institute. But understand why not as she said in the authors note. The stories were creepy but could have been a little bit scarier. Bora Chung still gives us a great book though.

Love this book so far it’s vibes are exactly what I wanted. I loved the first story it was so good and creepy. This voice on the phone that tells you that you are going to die is perfect .

I thought it would be an induction to veganism or at least vegetarianism, but I guess I was wrong, and I am not disappointed?

The revolution is coming. What is jarring in this book though is such long sections with no breaks. I am so used to the fast changing POV in Pratchett books I am not sure how I feel about it.
