2021 book 93

 Becky Chambers' The Galaxy, and the Ground Within

Another satisfying and enjoyable reading experience in the Wayfarers series! I have no idea why this is the last book when they’re all tenuously connected and there’s plenty of space for more stories (heh, space), but Chambers has a new series starting in July and I guess has other stuff going on. Anyway! This story centers on a little travel stop between interspace tunnels, and the three travelers who get stranded when there's an accident nearby (along with the mother and child who run the local rest stop). One of the characters is the love interest of the captain from book one, and it was nice to see her again. All the characters are great, and their conversations and interactions are engaging (if occasionally heavy-handed). Just a pleasant read all around. A-.
