I want to cry this book is so beautiful I love it please read it
four of my favorite things about this book:
- the art in this is some of the most beautiful artwork I have ever seen and I want to put it all over my walls
- there are zero (0) men in this book, and I didn't notice until almost halfway through, and everything about that is wonderful to me
- Martha Wells' blurb on the back of this is probably my favorite blurb of all time and it definitely motivated me to pick this one up: "On a Sunbeam is a slow-burn romance and a found-family space opera adventure with an engaging cast of characters in a gloriously strange setting that is brilliantly original. I enjoyed every bit of it." incredible
- they fly fish-shaped ships through outer space, and one of the main characters wanted to name her ship "Fishy" but was overruled by her Greek scholar of a wife
Minor: Transphobia and Gore
