I heard many great things about this book, and I must admit, I absolutely love the concept! I listen to the audiobook(specifically the “dramatic reading”) and enjoyed the sound effects and different voiced characters. Unfortunately, the story fell flat for me. Murderbot was just a little too dry.

This series was excellent. The artwork is beautiful and compelling, while the story contains multiple plot lines that connect. Several twists and turns made it difficult to put down, especially as the series progressed.

This story had a charm to it. The historical context worked very well for this story. I largely enjoyed it, specifically the cosmic horror parts. The creatures, Dr. Bisset, and the Aunties. There were some parts that dragged on for me, which was typically combat segments.

I listened to the audio book so that I could hear the voice! It took me a while to finish this one because I really wanted to be able to give it my full attention so I can appreciate the humor. It’s ridiculous and incredibly British. I loved it.

I enjoyed the way the author would jump between different story lines and characters in order to tell a larger narrative. There were multiple creepy moments that kept me on my toes, while also including the humanity of the relationship between the Eli and Oscar.

This book is a scary twist on demonic entities with a heartfelt story about queer youth in the evangelist United States. While the ending wraps up fairly quickly, I enjoyed the journey of suspense when the main characters were realizing that they were possessed.
