Found this very shaggy in comparison to Ancillary Sword - Breq picks up companions like a Persona protagonist

I loved this book. Still enjoying the narration of distributed consciousness, and the continued exploration of what justice means.

It’s a slower pace, compared to Justice. There are a lot of sociopolitics that don’t grip and entertain quite as much as Justice’s tense revenge thriller (and I enjoy sociopolitics normally, it just wasn’t what I expected from Breq). I imagine it’s setting the stage for Mercy so I’m very excited to see where that one goes.
