A review by thepaperbackplanner
Translation State by Ann Leckie

5.0

Huge thanks to Orbit and NetGalley for access to this galley in exchange for an honest review! It was an honor to read and review this novel. 

Y'ALL. This is what great scifi is like. Hooked from page one, attached to the characters right away, and reminded of past characters/settings without being hit in the face by them. I loved the way each character struggled with the themes of self and community and how their stories intertwined. Also, I would be remiss not to mention that some of this book is, frankly, gross AF. But in a scifi way, you know? Like, I couldn't look away. Heed those CWs and you'll be fine. We are lucky to live in the same time as Ann Leckie!
