Some Desperate Glory (Tesh)

5/5. I loved, absolutely LOVED this book. It's like Tesh went into my brain and was like, ok! let's dive deep into things you care about, through the medium of fiction! But also in a couple of places I may be imposing my own headcanon onto it which is giving it the benefit of the doubt? It's a little annoying because I can't explain either a) why I loved it SO MUCH, or b) why you should take my loving it with a grain of salt -- without what I consider massive spoilers. (I did not know anything about this book before reading it other than that it was SF, and I loved reading it not knowing anything about it.) So... if you haven't read it yet, uh, read it (with the proviso that you might not like it as much as I did?) and then talk to me about it, and if you have read it, well, talk to me about it :)

(The beginning of the book has content notes, and there are quite a few -- so if there is content that you may want to know about, you should look at those first. If you've e.g. been reading any of the Catriona Ward books I've been writing about, pfft, you're almost certainly fine as far as the content notes; unlike Ward, there are in fact no graphic descriptions of tortured/dead animals :P )
