I didn't know how much I needed this book. It was like therapy, these conversations between Dex and Mosscap. Every time the book started feeling slow, something would happen to turn the plot. Character-driven in the best ways, this book takes a hopeful look at humanity, both in the beautifully constructed world but also intrinsically. I will be reading the books to follow and I can't wait to see what other beautiful life-lessons I learn.
