4.0

I really enjoyed this book. I found the characters extremely lovable, although some of the world building was difficult for me to parse. I was in the last fourth of the book when I realized that the radchai where human. 

Anyway, fun stuff with gender. 

My main complaint is
I don’t think reet and qven should have matched in the end. I just think it seemed a little counter to everything they were both fighting for <\spoiler>
