I loved, loved, loved this book! I might have even loved it more than the first Wayfarers, I'm not sure. But this book is utterly delightful, I couldn't put it down. Seeing the two characters learn and grow in similar but also completely different circumstances was great. And I loved learning more about the amazing world Becky Chambers has created. Definitely recommend!
