So... this is "hopepunk". I like it.

I am not quite sure about the bit about the cure... He seemed to be OK with the results, but it was still not OK. This kind of justifies violations of bodily autonomy with the "they'll thank you later" explanation.

I like the love stories. Very warm, soft, lovely. All of them. Yes, I cried. Of course I cried.

Also... I read a review where the reviewer talked about the attitudes about disabilities. I have Aspergers (or, I am autistic, as it's properly said now

This book was fun. Rosemary, fleeing some drama on her home planet of Mars, gets hired on as a clerk on the Wayfarer, a spaceship with a motley crew. I really loved the creative worldbuilding of this book, and all of the characters were interesting and complex with dynamic relationships.

(Read for a challenge—Read a book with an AI/Robot character. Definitely not something I would have otherwise picked up.)

Great world-building and a sci-FI story that is really all about how to be human - tech or no tech, space or no space, aliens or no aliens. Loved the crew of the Wayfarer, the dips into each character and the way the overarching plot focuses on what cultural sensitivity really means.
