I was in the wrong mood for this. It is fine. It has a very literary feel, but deals with time travel and future moon colonies and such. I liked the world building and scifi elements and would have liked the focus to stay there more. I got bored with all the scenes of characters just sitting around thinking and worrying. I was listening to the audiobook in the car when it finished. I was distracted by traffic and didn't notice how it ended. But I also found I didn't care. I wasn't attached to any of the characters. In another mood, I probably would have enjoyed this more.

Sexual violence? I don't remember any. Other content warnings? Pandemic, betrayal, dysfunctional family, white supremacy, misogyny.
