rereading ‘the long way to a small angry planet’ in probably… at least four or five years? and 1. I’d forgotten how much I loved this book, and I feel like my memory of it kinda flattens down the worldbuilding and sheer amount of character building in it, and it deserves better than that! and 2. it’s really interesting which bits of the book stick out to me more now than they did on my very first read
