To all you #SciFi #writers out there,

Please please please please have an astrophysicist or aerospace engineer review your book before publishing.

I'm reading an award-winning scifi book right now and while the writing is good and the author obviously tried to get the science details down, they also obviously didn't do much more than read wikipedia. It's getting painful to read.

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.
