I should probably add this one too: it's not one of the ones I've just finished, but it's still on my mind. It addresses a devastating experience, and revolutionary attempts to heal from that transatlantic experience that were less than victorious, and it does so with so much care, so much thoughtfulness...

I should have also remembered "This Is How You Lose the Time War" by Amal El-Mohtar and Max Gladstone.

Thanks for the recommendations! I was going to say you should “check out” Hermética (😉) but then noticed you added it here! Have you read any of the Black Dawn Series out on ak press?? Definitely worth checking out.

I have station six and the newest one is in the mail so I’m excited to read those ones as well.

Funnily enough, I just ordered your books that I didn't have physical copies of. They're waiting at my dad's house in Florida for my daughter to bring them to me in Colombia next month. I'll check out your recommendations, too!
