The Long Way to a Small, Angry Planet by Becky Chambers

hopeful medium-paced

2.0

This tried my patience. I know when I say that nothing really happens, someone could counter ‘ah that’s the point’ but if the point is to hang out with the characters, I’d like a bit more friction or darkness. You need some edge to have true hope and this is about as edgy as one of those twee comic strips about mental health that gets shared on a social media. Like those it might appeal to some folk, might even be wise and true in its way but it just irritated me.
