The Long Way to a Small, Angry Planet by Becky Chambers
Did not finish book. Stopped at 46%.

Too much worldbuilding without any explanation. Hard to get immersed into the story when there's new info being thrown at you every 5 seconds.

This book.... is so, so good. I haven't actually finished a book in years, but I read this one in about 1 day. I could not put it down. It's so heartwarming, and it's just a very cozy story. It also has some good queer representation. :)
Minor: Child abuse
There are mentions of child abuse, but none is performed by any of the protag or the other primary characters.
