This week I've been mainly reading, no. 208.
Becky Chambers 2nd Monk & Robot novella, A Prayer for the Crown-Shy (2022) is every bit as charming & philosophically rich as the first (micro-review 186). Together they tell the tale of the growing relationship between a wondering tea-monk & a robot emissary seeking to understand the world of humans. Asking fascinating questions about what sentience is but also a story of friendship, I cannot recommend the pair enough!
