I loved this one. It grapples much more than the first book with the themes of tradition versus exploration and fleshes Binti out more as a character. I said the first book reminded me of Star Trek, and this one with Binti's isolation as a result of her transformation from contact with aliens reminded me of Lilith's Brood- though far less dark- and those are both excellent stories to be compared to.

The only drawback is that this book feels less complete than the first book did. The first one was clearly the start of a series, but could stand on its own. This one basically ends with "To be continued," but that's a common problem for middle books in trilogies.

These books are so short but jam packed with so much in them and I can't wait to read the conclusion! 5⭐️
