And Becky Chambers does it again! It's a comfort punk, gentle sci-fi full of soulful writing ✍️

Perfect book when you just want to curl up and feel a little bit cosy.

Shorter novella unlike her other books that were each very good. Read 33% and this wasn't giving much focus to a plot or the characters.

3.5 stars.

This is the third book I've read from Becky Chambers and I'll just say that it was kind of disappointing. I didn't really care that much about the characters and their actions, but I enjoyed the writing and liked where the story ended.

Becky Chambers writes just such wholesome and uplifting stories- and in this timeline I'll take all the hope for humanity I can get.

Smaller and sadder than I thought it was going to be, but amazing nonetheless.

Lovely found family space exploration novella. Told from one POV as if addressing an audience ‘back home' on Earth. Chambers is excellent at bring heart into sci-fi and I love it.
