Space Opera by Catherynne M. Valente, sci-fi satire/comedy. Absolutely hilarious, loving it so far. Often compared lovingly to Hitchhiker’s and it’s been holding up which says a lot. It’s definitely funny but under that is some incredible world building which just makes it that much better. Highly recommend!

Oh man, this has been on my TBR. I loved The Past Is Red by her, and enjoyed Comfort Me With Apples, but I think Space Opera is solidly my wheelhouse. I need to grab a copy.
