Fifi's review of A Prayer for the Crown-Shy (Monk & Robot, #2)

4/5: 'welcome comfort, for without it, you cannot stay strong' #DeZinVanHetBoek ##TheEssenceOfTheBook The term crown shyness in the title refers to the phenomenon of the tops (crowns) of - mostly old and tall - trees never touching each other, even when they are standing very close to each other. In this lovely story, Chambers describes the phenomenon as follows: 'somehow, in the absence of contact, they knew exactly where to stop growing outward so that they might give their neighbors space to thrive.' There's an element of wishful thinking here: she seems to project this natural behaviour on...

'Everybody needed a cup of tea sometimes.'

A Psalm for the Wild-Built was wonderful. It was gently paced. Leisurely, but didn’t feel slow. I intend to read the next Monk and Robot book, but I don’t feel in a rush to do so.

Rainy days are perfect for reading with a cup of coffee! I’m currently reading A Psalm for the Wild-Built by Becky Chambers. Cozy Sci-Fi? Serving tea on some moon? The promised robot hasn’t shown up yet, but it’s lovely so far.
