Really enjoyed this whole series, and this was a good one to go out on, although honestly Chambers could come back to this setting any old time she wants as far as I'm concerned.

I really enjoyed the premise of just a bunch of people stuck at an interstellar truck stop, and what happens when you stick all those personalities together. Very different from most of the Scifi I read, but also incredibly enjoyable. Made me tear up a couple of times.

I absolutely love this series, and I'm so sad to have finished it. This book was so lovely, and I will never get over how well Becky Chambers combines this hopeful diverse utopia with incredible social commentary and complicated issues. There is so much to be learned from this series. Also there were several moments of wholesomeness or hope that just made me tear up (as well as a line from the acknowledgements that just. fully made me cry?? honestly rude).

I'll be recommending this series to anyone I can get to read it.
