Sci-Fi, Found Family
“All the things made better for some people. Nobody has ever figured out how to make things better for everybody.“
“I love it dearly. But it will never feel the same as it did when I was a kid. I’m different now. And different is good, but it cuts both ways.“
“Every organic sapient I’ve ever talked to, every book I’ve read, every piece of art I’ve studied. You are all desperate for purpose, even though you don’t have one.”
“I haven’t found a purpose like that yet–nothing so overarching and big. But I don’t think purposes have to be immutable.”

The threads of plot join together well to the conclusion, and the themes were beautifully explored and well built upon from the first.
Oh, and love that the exploration of gender continue in this one.
All around, a very good follow up to the first book.
