Went straight into the second book and for me thats all you need to know about how I feel about it.
Octavia has built such an immersive and impressive world that easily fits into our own. Reading this in the subsequent years that this book refers too starting in 2024 will be an extremely interesting exercise.
I'm currently also listening to a podcast by adrienne maree brown and toshi reagon that breaks this book down chapter by chapter and I think this is really adding to the experience. I'm deeply effected by what I have read here.
