I liked [b:Ancillary Sword|20706284|Ancillary Sword (Imperial Radch, #2)|Ann Leckie|https://d.gr-assets.com/books/1413464739s/20706284.jpg|40026175], but I didn't love it the way I loved [b:Ancillary Justice|17333324|Ancillary Justice (Imperial Radch, #1)|Ann Leckie|https://d.gr-assets.com/books/1397215917s/17333324.jpg|24064628]. One of my favorite things in the first book was rapidly hopping between all of Justice of Toren's different simultaneous points of view. This still happened somewhat in Sword, but not to the same extent. Still definitely looking forward to the third book.

Another good one but the momentum kind of disappeared which I guess isn't bad I just like when boom bang crash happens
