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

5 stars

I finally read this beautiful character-driven sci-fi about a species-diverse team that's hired to tunnel wormholes and is heading toward a big, dangerous job. On the journey, they become a close-knit family, even the most antisocial outsider among them. A deep, socially-conscious, and powerful portrait of deep relationships and so many big issues.

Alex: "We're already burning hot as it is. You wanna go flat-out, the Roci can handle it, but understand you burn like that at some point, we're not gonna be around to enjoy the ride.

Miller: "What's the limit?

Alex: "I don't know. Maybe 15-20Gs? We could probably handle that if we're juiced to the gills, but eventually one of those little blood vessels in your brain's gonna go pop"
