A Psalm for the Wild-Built by Becky Chambers

4.5

This book was so unbelievably lovely. I think it’s the first SFF book I’ve read that I’d classify as low stakes and it was just so cozy and comforting. The conversations about personhood and purpose were so interesting and I loved watching Dex on their literal and metaphorical journeys. I also loved the casual queerness in here - Dex uses they/them pronouns and no one bats an eye, which is always so comforting to read about as someone who also uses they/them pronouns. Becky Chambers managed to pack a wonderful and enticing world into so few pages as well as wonderful complex characters and conversations. A great little novella.
