About As You Wake, Break the Shell by Becky Chambers
On the resource-poor planet of Fortune, botanist Signy makes medicine from plants in her small shop, helping people the system leaves behind. Cora pilots rorquals—massive living ships that connect the settlements of the solar system. Her bond with her ship, Colibri, brings a dangerous side effect called mindbleed, putting her piloting career at risk and leading her to Signy’s shop.
Told across two timelines, from their first meeting to a future of domestic bliss, this science-fiction novel brings space travel together with a queer love story centered on survival, trust, and connection. Readers looking for character-focused space fiction, romance, and stories of found family may enjoy its blend of persistent danger and quiet wonder.
