(Even with dyslexia was the tech-babble that is ever present in sci-fi very comprehensible!)
Every character got their moment to shine, at their best and at their worst which was heartwarming to read. It truely felt like we were part of the crew as well.
Minor: Grief, Gun violence, and War

I’d recommend this if you’re looking for a found family story where the plot isn’t as important as the side quests along the way.
Minor: Death, Sexual content, and War

There’s a joke that in fantasy books the travel gets skipped, and in sci-fi the whole book is the travel, and that was definitely the case for this book! It’s a very long way to get to the small, angry planet, and the the hijinks that occur along the way are what made this book so enjoyable.
The Wayfarer crew was so lovely to read about! Their struggles and celebrations felt so real, and it was a pleasure to learn about the universe they live in through their experiences. I will definitely be continuing this series. 4 stars.
Moderate: Religious bigotry, War, Xenophobia, Sexual content, and Vomit
Minor: Racial slurs and Death

The fact that I really enjoyed this book just goes to show how I should pay attention to all the lesbian space operas my high school english teacher recommends. She never misses I fear
