oh boy what an amazing read. I was hooked from the very beginning. Like the first book, this gave such a calming feeling. There were a few moments where I couldn't stop smiling (if you know you know) and there were other moments that made me feel sad... no reflective is a better word for it. It made me think about consciousness and my own purpose in life, something I don't often like to dwell on. But this was in a good way.

I found myself even more in love with Dex and their robot companion, Mosscap. Oh how I wish there was more because I could never get bored of these two. It was an honour to watch them both grow as people (or as an object in Mosscap's case). This is a world that we should strive to be like in the future, because it truly does feel like everyone belongs and is exactly who they need to be. The world survives through altruism, not selfishness, something we should all aim to emobdy one day
