Well, I tried, but this just Wasn't For Me. I thought after Home that Big Things would be happening and Binti would come into her own, but alas it was not to be. The first good chunk of this short book was her laying in the sand lamenting....everything. And granted, she had every reason to be upset, but I wanted her to move the story along and do something! In the end, everything fell flat and I didn't feel like there was any point to the whole story anymore. Honestly, I don't reach for SF, so this could just be me and how my tastes run so maybe still give it a chance!
