I understand why so many people love Becky Chambers now! I finished it after reading a rather uncomfortable chapter in a different book and it brought me peace. I love the love and acceptance in its pages and we even get an agender character? (representation is so rare)

I loved Mosscap and related way too much. I too find myself surrounded by people who seem to know what their interest is while I find everything interesting! I just want to study it all. Whenever I get involved in a project I always develop some kind of side interest that ends up taking up a good chunk of my free time. I would absolutely love to learn more about the robot society! I loved the little snippets we did get. It sounds like a place I would love to live (although I don't know if I'd be welcome). I really hope that we get to see more of this in the next book. I'm a little sad at how short they are (I could have read on much longer) but at least that means it should be available from my library sooner?
