How High We Go in the Dark

Not sure whether this was is 3 or 4 stars. This is essentially an extended treatise on grief, although, for me, the emphasis is a bit too much in the “extended”. Some of the prose and stories are beautiful, however by the end I was skimming through the suffering. This is not a book to read if you want to be uplifted, although some of the chapters are rewarding. So a 3.5, but rounded down for unnecessary length and repetition (plus, some of the more sci-fi aspects felt a bit like they had been crowbarred in to justify the story).
