it’s 3am because i needed to finish it before i could go to sleep
how are the characters in this novella more fleshed out than characters in some full length books?! they felt so real and i love them. they’ve created this beautiful found family that makes my heart ache in the best possible way.
i laughed, i cried
the space walk seen really crept up on me, i didn’t realise i was crying until everything got blurry.
i understand the open ending it makes sense but my god do hate open endings i just wanna know what happens 🥲 but would defo not have been as impactful without one
update: it’s been 3 months and i still think about it constantly
update update: it’s now being upgraded to a 5 star i can’t stop thinking about it
