Same! And I didn’t think about that, but you are right. It’s definitely a little Murderbottish. 😂

My top favorite read this year: SERVICE MODEL, by Adrian Tchaikovsky! This dark comedy, sci-fi murder mystery, absolute clever piece of fiction had me laughing and thinking and talking about it to everyone I know! #LibFaves24
