2023 book 67

 Ann Leckie's Translation State

Leckie's latest is another set in a new part of the Imperial Radch universe, centering on three characters—a young man of unknown origin who just wants to know where he belongs; a woman sent on an impossible quest by the new head of her family; and one of the mysterious Translators, who doesn’t want to do what they were designed to do. Eventually all three stories collide and the stakes get very high. Lots of good space politics and diplomacy, with a little bit of angsty pining for good measure. And lots of hugging for characters who need and deserve hugs! So good! A/A-.
