haven't read sci-fi in forever and i'm glad that i read this one to change that. it wasn't overly complicated which i appreciated as someone who isn't familiar with the genre.

the worldbuilding is brilliant and the characters so nuanced and loveable. it was a bit slow for me especially since the main plot point mentioned in the summaries only happen in the last few chapters of the novel, but overall it was an enjoyable ride. cried a lot during the last two chapters.
