It was partially a “slice-of-life” story that had its share of entertaining, funny and relatable moments. There’s not much of a plot here and the story is very much character-driven. You don’t need to justify that, or earn it. “You keep asking why your work is not enough, and I don’t know how to answer that, because it is enough to exist in the world and marvel at it. I just loved everything about this and I can’t wait for more from these two because I would read anything with them in it! Um, hello, this was my first book by Becky Chambers and I absolutely loved it? Who knew that a monk and a robot could make me weepy? Who knew that their friendship could be a soothing balm for my tired soul? It only took one chapter for me to love Sibling Dex and my love for Mosscap was pretty much immediate from the instant it comes rushing out of the woods at the most awkward of moments. I followed along with parts of the book with the audio, which I would also recommend, and I have a feeling I’ll return to this book often when I’m craving a comforting read.
The characters rapidly grew on me and the story was a soothing read that asked questions that really hit a mark with me. TL DR: It took no more than one chapter for me to realise just how much I would enjoy this book. I’m so glad that I finally read my first Becky Chambers book because the hype is real, friends! I asked Jess Jessticulates to buddy read this with me so I would actually pick this book up.
