Just a heads up you might get dinged for the list sounding like a personal list and not necessarily a public one! The “my” in the title
i highly recommend the wayfarers series by becky chambers for u !!!
aggressively seconding
Third!!! Wayfarers was fantastic
I love that recommendation! Will put it on the list here. I Lowkey think Becky might be one of my favourite authors.
I love this concept so much!! May I suggest The Murderbot Diaries by Martha Wells (the title doesn't sound heartwarming, but I swear it is haha)
becky chambers is singlehandedly keeping me sane when it comes to the fear of the future and technology lmao thank you for this list, that's a wonderful idea!
I’ve only read the first book of the series so far, but I recommend All Systems Red (the first book of the Murderbot Diaries) by Martha Wells! I think it fits into this theme too and Murderbot the character is actually so relatable
Highly recommend The Wild Robot by Peter Brown! :)
