Provenance by Ann Leckie
3.0

A light, quick read. Leckie is so good at inventing weird aliens! I didn't like Ingray anywhere near as well as Breq, but I mean... Breq is a badass! This book maintained that "Sense and Sensibility and Spaceships" feel present in the Ancillary series. It wasn't as hard-hitting, but that's OK! I liked already knowing something about this universe - it made the learning curve a bit less steep. And I had a few giggles, especially when the Radchaai ambassador didn't know which pronoun to use. It was almost like Leckie was apologizing for making her treatment of gender so disorienting in the Ancillary series.
