All Systems Red by Martha Wells
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
"I don't know what I want I want... But it isn't that, it's that I don't want anyone to tell me what I want, or to make decisions for me."
My only complaint is that this wonderful novella is waaaay too short, less than 150 pages!! But oh, the action within! And Martha Wells has a wicked sense of humor as well.
It makes me think of Westworld: Robots evolving and gaining free will. Throw in incredible action sequences, an introverted "murderbot" who likes to download entertainment media to watch on her free time, and I'm hooked! Can't wait for this quarantine period to end so I can go buy Book # 2, and all the other books in the series!
