- I didn't know I needed a cozy mystery set on Jupiter, but now that I've read THE MIMICKING OF KNOWN SUCCESSES, it's kind of all I want in my life.
- This book is a good little whodunit, and the world it's set in is quite well-thought out and real feeling for a novella.
- I loved the tentative, slow beginning of a second chance romance between Mossa and Pleiti (did I mention this is also a sapphic story?), with each of them pleased to discover how the other has both changed and stayed the same.
- A second installment in this series has already been announced, and I can't wait to get my hands on it.
