 Honestly, pretty boring. I get that this author focuses on characters, but there's literally nothing driving the "story" until the very end. I also didn't understand how Tessa's narrative fit in with the rest; at least all the other characters were directly affected by Sawyer's death. Tessa and her family basically just use it as a reason to move to a planet. I'm not sure that was a worthwhile arc to include in this book.
