I loved how cozy and lived in this books felt, while also being really thoughtful on challenging your perspectives.

Empathetic, cozy, character-driven sci-fi about a crew of misfits with a heaping dose of found family. I love the writing style. The descriptions are rich in detail, and the dialogue is witty. The world is complex and entertaining, but never overwhelming. The varied descriptions of the different alien (and human) races and cultures were interesting and well-explored. It’s light on the plot and much more about vibes (kinda slice of life), but that absolutely isn’t a critique. I LOVE this cast of characters. Kizzy is hilarious, quirky, and iconic. Dr. Chef is adorable, with his healing and nourishing purpose. I love Sissix, simultaneously tender and a badass. Rosemary gets to discover who she is, supported by this wild crew. 5 stars, no notes.

really great found family story with just enough tension to keep it interesting. 

lots of interesting ethics and parallels to the real world in terms of religions, police brutality, xenophobia and more. 

some of the ethical problems especially related to
medical autonomy of a character
are not handled in the best way, but overall pretty good
