The dedication to this book is "For anybody who could use a break" and that's exactly what this is. What a precious, precious little book. I wouldn't exactly know how to describe it. It's got tea, a God of Small Comforts, and a sentient robot. Its main character, Dex, is a monk dedicated to help others but a little lost inside. It's Sci-fi insofar as it's set in the future, but really that's not the point. The point is that this book is bursting with humanity and small comforts and even though I'd hate to give you an order, you should absolutely do yourself a favour and read it.
