Just finished A Memory Called Empire by #ArkadyMartine, which hit the spot for my fave sci-fi subgenres of Ethical Conundrums in Space!
Beautifully written worldbuilding, politics intrigue, diplomacy.
I want to start A Desolation Called Peace, but given how much of the last 48 hours was reading, I think I might need to spend some time with my actual humans first.
