The Long Way to a Small, Angry Planet

I actually really loved this book for several reasons. I loved the way it explored all these different alien cultures and explained both the bad and the good of almost every one of them. There were a lot of characters but all of them had their own stories and relationships. Tho there were many characters and species to keep track of which made it a little harder to follow the story. 

I feel like the way they introduced Ohan was a little rough. Rosemary is surprised by the plural pronoun (they) which is just incorrect. They has been used as a singular in language for longer than the plural form and also used in the book. It seemed like this and other parts were supposed to be a comment on gender but it failed at that. I realise that they as plural is correct in Ohans case but it's poorly introduced.  Especially since this has the LGBTQ+ tag I am kind of disappointed.

I also didn't like the way to book left off the characters. Most have gone through some big attitude or personality changes very last minute. The character development went very rapidly sometimes and now it is just left totally unexplored. Which bothers me especially when I know the other book in the series stars two totally unexplored characters. I would have love to know more about Ohan, Corbin, Jenks, Ashby and Pei, and Rosemary and Sissix.
