Very lovely - I remember when I saw this book being announced on Twitter and I immediately hit "preorder" on the Avery Hill website. I've been a big fan of this publisher for a while now, and this story only strengthened that love. It's not every day you see older queer women portrayed in media, and when they are, it is often through a very rose-colored lens. Molly Naylor and Lizzy Stewart show that sapphic relationships can be messy too, especially when lack of work-life-balance and mental illness come into play.

I would love to see the play this was adapted from, as I found myself wanting more from the story than what I saw within the book. More scenes of Maggie and Jane, more scenes from Maggie's work, or even just more beautiful drawings. The art was most definitely my highlight of this book - Lizzy Stewart's art perfectly captured the feeling of awe you feel when thinking about the size of space, the twinkling stars, the far-off planets, the satellites and landers traversing unfathomable distances... Just like you can get lost in these thoughts, it's easy to get lost in Stewart's art.
