This is my second read-through of this book and I have to say, I am so glad I read it again. It's been long enough that I had forgotten many of the major plot points and it felt like a new book. And I liked it better this time than before. I was able to appreciate it more as a series of events detailing the lives of a lovely found family, whereas before I was a little miffed by the lack of a satisfying ending. I was fully satisfied this time. I love this book. If you like space operas with ragtag crews, heartwarming family dynamics, and a healthy dose of adventure, read this book.
