Navigating the Stars by Maria V. Snyder

4.0

11/9/19- had to drop it down to four stars this time. So much in the way of representation for POC and that sort of thing, but the amount of times I read ‘he or she’ and ‘he/she’ instead of ‘them’ was unreal. Are there no enbies in the future? I find that very hard to believe. Also no disability rep that I could see, at all. The rest of the book was as phenomenal as I remember. So my issues are only two, but they’re two very big issues. I also would have loved to see more black and brown people on page. Hopefully these issues will be rectified in Chasing the Shadows, still very keen to read it.

2/1/19- Omg, this book was fantastic! So many awesome characters. So much cool science. Time dilation and space travel are generally big hooks for me, though I usually read fantasy, this book did not disappoint. I’m sad there seems to be no date for the next book, but I really hope there’s some info soon, because I need it!
