A Closed and Common Orbit (Wayfarers #2)

Shannan says: Published in 2016, this is the second book and my favorite of the Wayfarer series. Lovelace, the artificial intelligence of the spaceship from the previous book, awakes to find herself in a body (which is illegal) and must now navigate the universe with the help of her new friend, Pepper. Pepper is an engineer who was raised on a ship by an AI after devastating circumstances. I loved this one because of the way Chambers helped me examine some of my predetermined notions and judgements about artificial intelligence and what makes us human.
