Together, Pepper and Lovey will discover that, huge as the galaxy may be, it’s anything but empty.

Review

A Closed and Common Orbit Audiobook Mp3 felt like a hug. So satisfying and lovely and warm. I never ever want Becky Chambers to stop writing this series. I just want it to go on and on for the rest of my life.

Character driven story so light on ‘plot’ but it is a nice luxuriant romp through a far off universe filled with delightful people that make me want to be a better friend to the people around me.

Better yet I found it more enjoyable than the first book in the series.

If you are looking for ultra hard sci-fi, or a military centered novel, then, by all means, look somewhere else. If you are looking to relax with friends that you didn’t know existed then get this book.

I really enjoyed the story, but ran into some frustrating parts when it came to this audible version. Overall the narrator did a really good job, despite some small mistakes and one grating one. She mispronounced the xe pronouns in this book for some reason, despite pronouncing it correctly throughout the first book. This really, really bothered me for some reason.
