A Psalm for the Wild-Built by Becky Chambers
hopeful
lighthearted
reflective
3.5
A Psalm for the Wild-Built is a cozy sci-fi about a tea monk (Dex) and a robot (Mosscap) in a wonderful world that gives me hope for the future.
The most impactful part for me was a discussion about meaning/purpose that happens toward the end. Mosscap’s perspective is exactly what I wanted/needed to hear.
I gave it 3.5 stars because while I liked it, I felt that Dex wasn’t very relatable. I guess I’m just not restless like they are, so it made reading their perspective a little frustrating at times. Even so, I did appreciate them.
I want to emphasize that I did like it overall, and I’d highly recommend it. Looking forward to continuing this series!
