great little short story, it reminds me of something i read or heard or saw once, in another life maybe - it just feels so wonderfully familiar and nostalgic. i want to climb on the moon and extract moon milk, but her distance it’s too great.

More of a 2.5 but I've rated it a 3 because I think I may just not be intelligent enough to understand what the book is trying to communicate. It was lovely to read, I love space and cosmic ideas but I think this book requires more analysis than I'm willing to give it
