A review by neenor
The Galaxy, and the Ground Within by Becky Chambers
3.0
I kind of don’t want to write a review for this because (as much as it breaks my heart to admit it) this was my least favourite book in the Wayfarers series.
It sucks even more because this is the final book of the series! A series I have adored! But I just can’t help but think it was missing something? I cried at the end, as per usual, but my investment in the characters took a long time to develop, and the story didn’t feel as meaningful as the other three. I can’t put my finger on exactly what I didn’t like as much, but it’s there, somewhere.
I’ve written in previous reviews of this series that I often walk away feeling an immense sense of satisfaction at a story well-told. Unfortunately, that feeling was absent this time. It was still a good book and I enjoyed it, but it just didn’t strike the same chord as the others. Definitely worth a read if you’re a fan of the series, but just be aware that you might not enjoy it as much.
