Space ship adventures

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

When humans left a mostly destroyed earth ("When earth was all used up") humanity scattered to the stars.  The Wayfarer is a ship that travels the stars and tunnels wormholes from various points.  Into the mix comes Rosemary, a woman running from her past, or rather her family's past.  She's never really been around aliens so we're encountering these aliens through her eyes.  They have been offered a very good job but it comes with complications.  Their navigator is dying and change is going to make their lives different.  

 

Kizzy, well, I've worked with Kizzy's and they're fine at a bit of a distance.

 

This was a fun read, the characters were interesting and I liked how the characters behaved and interacted, things were never ideal but people were clearly themselves.  I liked how the relationships developed.  I'm looking forward to the next in the series.
