I really liked the premise of the book where space travel and scientific exploration are untainted by greed and ‘progress.’ But somehow it felt too optimistic for me. Maybe I’m just a pessimistic person but it just wasn’t that enjoyable without the conflict of morals between characters. Also the writing style was not really my cup of tea.

Another heartfelt and human tale from lil Becky. I must say I missed the aliens from her other work but this was a different universe and I’ll accept that. A quick, enjoyable read.
