I have rapidly become a Becky Chambers fan girl. She manages to take dense science fiction concepts, like how we defined sentient beings and the ethics of artificial intelligence and labor, and make them feel like a conversation about humanity and individuals. She is a master of characters and such a gift to this genre.
