This was such a fun introduction to the huge universe that is the bobiverse!

Exploring the perspective of a conscious Von Neumann probe is a very cool concept, and Bob is an entertaining character to follow along.

I like the humor, and the predicaments he has to deal with, along with the explanations while he's figuring everything out.

I'm so glad I finally chose to read this! It lived up to everything I'd heard about it over all the years before reading it myself.

I love the absurdist humor, the crazy situations that are accepted as normal, and there are so many quotable phrases!

I LOVE MURDERBOT!!!

I don't think I can say this enough, I've told as many people to read this as I can.

Amazing book! I loved the methodical manor of problem solving, discovery, and coming to terms with the memories that Grace keeps recovering as the book goes along. I was thoroughly engaged the whole way through.

If you've only seen the movie, the book is a must-read. There is a lot more development of the characters, so a lot of their decisions and actions make a lot more sense if you've read the book. There is also a lot more science, which I was a big fan of! A lot of loose ends that the movie left open were also closed up by the book, so it's definitely worth reading after watching.

I can't believe I resisted starting this book for as long as I did. Reading the description and learning what a LitRPG was didn't help with wanting to read it, but after seeing all 7 of the books on the top 10 or 15 trending on this site consistently month to month, I figured it had to have done something right. Even a couple chapters in, the RPG elements started out slightly off-putting, but I kept going and oh my god am I glad that I did.

This is now quite possibly one of my favourite series, and it only gets better as the books go on.

If you're skeptical of the format, give it a chance - read it to the end before making any judgments, and you will very likely be surprised.

A very entertaining blend of absurdism, humor, action, and surprising emotional depth.

Randall's humorous and informative explanations of questions I'd have never thought to ask made for an incredible read that kept me laughing almost every time I turned a page. Very excited to read the second!
