A thousand worlds have …
Holy shiiiiiiiit this series really escalated.
Also, Naomi! Bobbie! All the good characters!!
As one of the only remaining autistics in the universe, Xandri Corelel has faced a …
I read this within 3 days, on the tiny screen of my phone, and I could not care less because I've never enjoyed a book this much
The protagonist is a bisexual autistic woman. There's a strong focus on her inner life and thought process, and it's just so real. If you're autistic and have anxiety, here's finally a book that will make you feel understood, and have a truly relatable character.
For a large part the plot was intricate but lightweight until it got really intense toward the end. For the first half or so I thought I'd be recommending this as a light read but wow, as the book ended I was a sobbing mess.
Outwardly it looks like a science fiction book about aliens and diplomacy, but it carries clear social commentary as well.
I could not spot any ableism, racism or other *ism.

I really really really recommend reading this. Especially if you're autistic. And I guess also especially if you're not autistic. Or just in general.
It's also incredibly well written. The language is clear but artful.
Follow a motley crew on an exciting journey through space-and one adventurous young explorer who …
It would have been so nice.
There's space lesbianism, fluffy aliens, cool characters & polyamory.
The plot was not overly captivating and felt a bit haphazard and aimless, but that would have been okay if the book had been enjoyable...
Which it really would have been, were it not for the ableism.
It's full of ableist slurs & comparisons, with a free inspiration porn scene on top where one of the characters meets one from their own species who has a condition that's not called autism, but described exactly as autism is usually described. And then the character is nice to the space autistic who is eternally grateful for 10 minutes of kindness and they have totally changed each other's lives!!!!
That felt like a punch in the face.
So no, do not recommend. Sorry.
