I’m really not sure what to feel about this book. It was easy to read, the characters were varied, and there’s enough world building to get a sense of the wider universe. But nothing really happens. The characters get to know each other, have some arguments, eventually come to a better understanding etc. (reminding me of 12 Angry Men in a way) but there’s no threat, no danger, no one is really at risk.

If you want a book to make you feel good, where all the characters (eventually) get along, and you don’t have to think too much about what’s going on, then I can see the appeal here. If you want plot, action, and things to Happen in general, then you might be disappointed.
