I hadn’t realized this was out until my library app recommended it.

The author’s note at the end mentions she structured the novel around a calendar, which wasn’t obvious while reading, but I get it afterwards. It outside of that, there’s a lot less plot structure. This is almost a slice of life novel, but on mars. There’s sort of a central mystery in here, but that almost feels like back of the book bait more than what the novel is really about.
