This book perfectly fulfilled the form of a novella; it’s punchy and got me thinking. I also like the inclusion of the bonus content in this edition, which gives more context about Chambers’ thinking behind the book and how she was able to weave so much science so well into the story.
Graphic: Animal death, Confinement, Medical content, and Suicide attempt
Moderate: Grief
