Star Nomad by Lindsay Buroker.

This was a quick, cute read. Not “cozy”, as some might take cute to mean, but still…cute. I enjoyed the story a lot and am curious to see where it goes.

I did feel the pace was a bit slow at first, but things definitely ramp up once the ship has left the planet. I also felt like I wanted there to be more developing plot-wise as I read, but I understand this is the first in a long series of books so I suppose the juicier stuff will happen later.

Still a good read. Four stars!
