Did I finish the buddy read without my buddy?

Ancillary Mercy - Ann Leckie

I did. 

 

No regrets. 

 

This was amazing.   I absolutely loved this whole trilogy.   The character development, the world building - with the exception of the gender issue which I never understood - the politics, everything.   It was beautiful, heartbreaking, and redemptive.   It was, as Familiar Diversions, points out a comfort read, even if it's only brief, shining moments of such compassion ad understanding that they make all the pain worth those moments.  

 

It's the way people connect, it's everything.   

 

I can't believe I have two short stories, and that's it until the next book.   Can I have the next book now?
