This is a beautiful story of love for not just another person, but for our planet. I'm still thinking about it the day after I finished it.

What’s yours is mine. What’s mine is yours.
“Welcome home,” Moena said.

very short and totally interesting story. got me a little bit lost with the science but overall I did enjoyed it once I could kind of understand what she was trying to do/studying. somethings didn't clear out to me, like it lack an explanation and felt rushed but still it was nice.

A fun silly love story. The flowery language and plant metaphors are a little over the top. Moena and Rahul's relationship doesn't feel fully fleshed out. Moena's fantasies were more detailed than the real thing. Bonus points for the great descriptions of chronic illness and Bengaluru's pollution levels sadly.

ETA: Man, Tor really does get the best artists. That illustration is spectacular.
