Hugos reading!
Deeply interesting, may have suffered from being read in short spurts while wrangling a baby on a plane. And the fact that I'm 90% sure that Oozma U is also the name of the school in Monsters U and that threw me off because, well, brain.
Leaving that aside, the story itself fits perfectly with my current interest in "weird and on a spaceship" so I'm very much looking forward to the sequel.
