This year I decided that one of my goals would be to try some sci-fi. This one is pretty short so I thought it would be a great place to start.
Binti is human. Her people are the Himbu. She has never been to another planet. She has never even been away from home. All that is about to change.
Binti has been accepted at Oomza University. It is the most prestigious school in the galaxy. She will be the first of her people to go there.
What should be a simple trip to a school in another galaxy quickly becomes so much more.
I listened to this one and I thought it was great. I loved the story, Binti, and the brief glimpse of the other races left me wanting more. I also loved the way it ended. I have to read the next one with an ending like that!
I loved the narrator too!
