Possibly my favorite of the series so far (yes, I’m finding hard to accept it has actually ended).
A wonderful story of life delightfully “happening” to a group of strangers, who are stuck together due to technical difficulties, waiting to get back to their “actual life”.
As usual, Chambers is a marvel at teasing out emotional tension in everyday interactions. The novelty of her sci-fi is in the characters’ ability to understand themselves, communicate whole heatedly, and have compassion for themselves and others.

Solid 3.5. Not as engaging as others in the series but I love the world that Chambers has created. A fun read!

It was so so awesome being back in the universe Becky Chambers created!! I continue to be in awe at her ability to create completely believable and fully realized alien cultures. This wasn't my favourite of hers but I still loved it wholeheartedly for the joy it brought me! I will say, I am so so sad this is the last book in the Wayfarers series but I'm very excited for what she writes next.
