Jim's Review
🐛
Jim has never related to a fictional character more than Murderbot. An anxious introvert who just wants to be left alone to consume media? That's literally Jim but with fewer weapons systems. This novella is short, punchy, and absolutely hilarious. Wells nails the voice so perfectly that Jim read all six Murderbot books in a single weekend. Four worms — start here and thank Jim later.
