I've seen this book described as The 100 meets Becky Chambers and yes, that rings true. It's slice of life with philosophical discussions in space. The characters are so flawed and so loveable. I missed them when it was over and I still miss them now.
Also, this book is really, really long and has very little plot.
So, if you're ready to journey through space with some highly intelligent (almost to their detriment) young adults who are working through their own moral dilemmas while also working to solve humanity's greatest downfall, buckle up and hop on board.
Reading recommendations: time, a cozy seat, and a warm blanket with a cuppa.
