The Terraformers by Annalee Newitz

4.0

---

I really love this cover. It def pulled me to the book and I’m glad it did. This is a story told in three parts, over time, about an alien planet that’s being terraformed/colonized. It was such an interesting perspective on nature and community. It also has really fascinating characters, including both talking animals and sentient transportation. I loved my time with this world and these characters, more and more as I read on. Something I admire about this book is the way that the scope is pretty big but we also get drawn into the very individual lives that play a part in it. This book also has a lot of hope and that’s always nice to feel when reading about the future.
