This is a fabulously cozy adventure from Rebecca Thorne featuring shenanigans in space and how it feels to find friendship and family.
The journey is more important than the destination - which is great, because they’re definitely lost.
Torian Razner finally bought a starship, and contrary to Amelia’s assessment, it was not “a meteoric sign of stupidity”. Sure, the alien starship may have been abandoned for a century, and it may be covered in moss now… but it’s Torian’s ticket to freedom, regardless of what her ex… ah, captain… said.
Except Torian’s first flight reveals a surprise the moss is actually an organic computer with a snarky attitude and serious abandonment issues. The target of its loathing? The immortal alien who built it (and then parked the starship, with Moss inside, and forgot about it). The same alien who just found Torian and accused her of “stealing” the ship.
It’s entirely possible that Amelia was right about this meteoric stupidity.
If you love Firefly's adventures in space, the loveable alien cast of MassEffect, and the coziness of Legends & Lattes, this is for you.
The cosy fantasy Tomes & Tea Quartet by Rebecca - Can’t Spell Treason Without Tea - A Pirate’s Life for Tea - Tea You at the Altar - Alchemy and a Cup of Tea
Can't Spell Treason without Tea was a Sunday Times HB fiction bestseller w/c 06/05/2024
Rebecca Thorne is a USA Today, Indie, and Sunday Times Bestselling author, specializing in fantasy and sci-fi with romantic subplots.
She is a proud member of the LGBTQIA+ community, lives near Denver, Colorado, and uses her ADHD as a superpower to write multiple books a year. When she’s not writing (or avoiding writing), Rebecca can be found traveling the country as a flight attendant, hiking with her dogs and lovely wife, or basking in the sun like a lizard.
I’m a sucker for talking, sentient plants. Probably because I know that the only way a plant will ever stay alive in my house is if it can keep itself alive. Moss is more than capable of keeping himself alive, which is a good thing since his previous owner ABANDONED him. Luckily, Torian comes along and is more than willing to be his new best friend.
I love Rebecca Thorne’s work so much. She writes such amazing, heartfelt characters that are so realistic in their feelings and attitudes. I am always here for a snappy comeback whether it’s from an orc, a human, or a plant. And I’ll be here impatiently waiting for the next book in the series.
Thank you to the author for the ARC!! It was absolute delight to read!
Moss’d in Space by Rebecca Thorne Moss’d in Space series #1. Cozy Science fiction adventure. LGBTQ+, slow-burn romance. Cliffhanger aka great hook at the very end. Torian Razner will do anything to get her sister to a planet where she can breathe. She’s dying from the artificial recycled air. Finally, after 20 years of saving, she has enough to buy a ship. For that price, there isn’t a choice. The one and only ship available is an alien ship that was abandoned a hundred years ago and it’s covered in moss. It’s only as she’s aboard that she finds out that Moss is sentient and has abandonment issues. It doesn’t matter. She sets off to find a place her sister can live. A wormhole, an engine failure, a reroute and a ship graveyard are just the start of finding their new home.
🎧 I listened to an audiobook version narrated by Dylan Reilly Fitzpatrick and Natalie Naudus, the latter having over 400 audiobooks and both having done sci-fi and Romantasy books. The story is told in alternating POV chapters and each creates the two main voices in distinct voices or accents for the other. The voices are male and female so switches are easy to hear. More, Dylan is more computer and artificial mechanical voice though Moss is sentient. Natalie’s voice variances in conversations are amazing and I had to listen closely to determine if it was just person or more. Very impressive.
I will definitely watch for the next story. Especially if these two narrators are again onboard. Loved Moss, and the banter. Plus Auto Nav!
Amusing, captivating and a great adventure.
I received a copy of this from NetGalley and Macmillan Audio
This was delightful but also a lot more emotional than I had expected. The characters were great and their dynamics were incredible. It was a lot of fun to accompany Torian and Moss on their travels but also I bawled my eyes out at one point. Also love me some disaster lesbians in space. The narration is also fantastic and both narrators do an amazing job of bringing the characters to life. Definitely my favourite Rebecca Thorne book so far! ---- Many thanks to Macmillan Audio for the ALC!
Moss’d in Space by Rebecca Thorne was an absolute delight and the start of a trilogy I am already very excited about.
Torian finally gets her own starship and a chance at freedom, only to discover that her newly acquired vessel comes with an unexpected passenger. The mysterious moss covering the ship is actually a sentient organic computer with a sharp tongue, plenty of personality, and some serious abandonment issues. And apparently, it has opinions about everything.
I immensely enjoyed this book. The characters are easily its greatest strength. They all have distinct, believable personalities, their own dreams and motivations, and I loved getting little glimpses into the lives and cultures of different species. The cosy found-family vibes were absolutely my thing.
But Moss in particular completely stole the show for me. This quirky organic computer has SO much personality, and their interactions with Torian are both hilarious and surprisingly emotional. I especially loved that we get chapters from both Torian’s and Moss’s perspectives, which made their relationship even more fun to experience.
The book also struck exactly the right balance when it came to stakes. There is enough happening to keep the story engaging without losing that cosy feeling. The romance is very subtle, which I appreciated, and I really enjoyed watching the plot unfold.
I also loved the worldbuilding. There is enough detail to create a fascinating and complex intergalactic network, but not so much that the reader gets buried under information. I am really looking forward to seeing how the world expands over the next two books.
Interestingly, about halfway through the book I looked up Rebecca Thorne and realised I had previously tried to read Can’t Spell Treason Without Tea, but its setup didn’t capture my interest. I was genuinely surprised to discover it was the same author because I absolutely loved the setup of Moss’d in Space.
This has so much potential as a series, and I had a wonderful time with this delightfully weird little space adventure. I am very much looking forward to seeing where Torian, Moss, and their growing crew go next!
A cozy sci-fi featuring sentient moss and lesbians.
It was cute, I had lots of fun, but I kept trying to figure out where the tension was? There WAS tension, there was a plot, but I kept expecting like, a big climax or drama or overarching stuff and it wasn't really there. Lots of little events happening, but all resolved fairly quickly or kinda glossed over.
Anywho, I really enjoyed it, even if it fell into the "wow MC, you're so special without exhibiting any actual special qualities" trope that I don't particularly like. It seems like I didn't like it, but I promise, I did!
I really liked the beginning of this and I really enjoyed the writing. I would say the coziness of the first half of this book is similar to Becky Chambers' Wayfarer series, where the atmosphere is cozy but there are stakes and the characters find themselves in actual danger. Normally, that's the kind of cozy I prefer (I know there are some cozy fantasy enjoyers that would rather read something with no stakes at all), because otherwise I would be really bored. In this case, stuff was happening but I was still pretty bored and the plot just wasn't gripping me at all. I do really like the sentient moss character (called Moss!), who reminded me a lot of ART from the Murderbot Diaries albeit slightly snarkier. It was the best part of this book for me, but unfortunately I wasn't really interested in much else.
Thank you to NetGalley and Bramble for providing me with an ARC in exchange for an honest review.
This book is a lot of fun! I loved the ship, Moss. Such a cool, unique premise—to make moss a sentient organism that controls a ship and can spread itself to other locations. I like the MFC, Torian, though her attitude towards her romantic interest was juvenile. JUST TALK TO HER. Sheesh. But the rest of the characters and the book were so good I just rolled my eyes and ignored the fact that Torian acted like she was in 8th grade crushing after her first girlfriend. The writing is strong and the sci-fi was excellent. It looks like this is the first in a series and I will definitely read the next book! If you enjoy sci-fi that'll make you smile you will love this book.
Cozy sci-fi + spaceship adventures + a sentient moss life support system with serious abandonment issues? Yes please! That would already be more than enough to win me over; but add in an overly optimistic heroine determined to save her sister's life, compelling sci-fi worldbuilding, and interesting alien species, plus a not-quite-unrequited romance, and you can see why I absolutely devoured this book. I guarantee you will too.
it was fun and ok, but definitely it didn't do well being compared to murderbot. i would probably read the next book in the series if there is a next book and yet if there is not, i wouldn't miss it.
This was my first book by Rebecca Thorne, and now I need to read the rest of her work!
This fun cozy scifi about an abandoned moss covered ship was a fun read! Rebecca Thorne’s writing was perfect at capturing a light hearted atmosphere while still making you feel some tension from what our character is going through. The witty little banter between our two main characters was an aspect I really enjoyed!
The audiobook is so perfectly done, the dual narrators and their ability to give characters their own unique voices really brought this story to life! I will be seeking out more of their work for sure!
If you like cozy then this is a must for you!
What would you ask a plant if you could communicate with it? 🤔
Thank you Netgalley and Macmillan Audio for the ALC! 🙏🏼
This tickled the same serotonin spot in my brain that Monsters and Mainframes by Barbara Truelove did 100000/10 cozy queernormative space adventure with sentient moss 🥹
There is a lovely confidence to Moss'd in Space. It's not trying to be the biggest book in the room, but it knows exactly what it wants to be and never feels the need to apologize for it. I found myself settling into this universe surprisingly quickly. The world feels lived in rather than assembled, and Rebecca Thorne has a knack for making even small details feel as though they belong to a much larger whole.
By the time I was properly immersed in it, I realized I wasn't reading to find out who was going to save the galaxy or prevent the collapse of civilization. I was reading because I simply enjoyed being there. Science fiction sometimes seems afraid of quiet moments, as though every chapter needs to escalate the stakes in order to justify its existence. Moss'd in Space never falls into that trap. It understands that wonder doesn't always arrive with explosions attached to it. Sometimes wonder is a place. Sometimes it's a conversation.
What surprised me most was how little I missed the spectacle I had unconsciously expected going in. The book has imagination, charm and personality in abundance, but it wears them lightly. Nothing feels forced. Nothing feels as though it's straining to impress the reader.
The result is something that felt oddly rare: a science fiction novel that left me smiling more than breathless. And somehow that made the experience feel all the more memorable. There are books that leave you thinking about their twists, and books that leave you thinking about their ideas. This one wasn't quiet either of those. It could have chased spectacle. It didn't need to. And somehow that made it all the more wonderful because of it.
Torian has been saving up for a starship for years. When she finally has enough to buy one, she has one option. An ancient alien looking starship with an overgrowth of moss. However disappointed she is by this, Torian doesn't have a choice. Her sister is sick and in order to save her life, she has to fly to a terra formed planet and test for citizenship. And so she buys the ship. With the moss. That turns out to have a mind of its own.
This lovable cozy scifi book, with a subplot of sapphic romance is perfect to take with you on summer vacation. It's very well written, incredibly funny and I was giggling and kicking my feet most of the way through. The audiobook is also excellent and I highly recommend listening to it if you can.
In summary, I loved it! And I believe everyone needs a snarky moss with abandonment issues in their life 🩷
Moss'd in Space was a lovely little cosy science fiction (I didn't even know that genre was a thing), with relatively low stakes - all things considered - and if you're a fan of the cosy genres, you'll likely enjoy this.
There's a sarcastic organically intelligent spaceship, M.O.S.S., who is essentially the crowning glory of this one.
There's aliens who you think are bad and scary and mean but actually just misunderstood.
There's characters who are striving to do the right things, get over their past, and become better people along the way.
There's found family and friendship, as well as some turbulent times and light romantic themes.
It's basically, a cosy story. But it's in space.
I think this is a really nice, and well written and woven story, with nice characters that bring a good bit of uniqueness - especially the spaceship MOSS.
I don't necessarily think this is anything new, and that's fine! It's a nice easy read/listen. And sometimes, that's all you really need. But it's not ground-breaking, it's not really anything new, and you've probably experienced a similar story to this quite a few times if you've read any "cosy" stories.
Think of this as Becky Chambers x Legends and Lattes x Martha Wells and you won't go far wrong.
I found this a step up from my last Rebecca Thorne read, which was just fine. With Moss'd however, I'm definitely keen to continue on with this series, especially with that cliffhanger of an ending!
This gave me the vibes of being The Long Way to a Small, Angry Planet's younger cousin, what with the journey to deep space and bonding with unconventional friends along the way. The star of the novel is of course the titular Moss, sentient moss that operates as the computer system of an alien starship. Moss provides much of the book's humorous tone with its enjoyable snark, and it's a real treat seeing its friendship with the other POV character, Torian, grow during their journey into space. You can't help but feel empathetic to Moss being The Clingy Friend, having been left behind forgotten in a space station for well over a century, stewing in its own thoughts for company. Not only does it have to deal with its loneliness and abandonment issues, Moss also learns to navigate human cultural norms, given that its previous owner was an alien.
Moss might be the star, but the HEART of the novel for me is Torian. She's our plucky protag whose main goal is to save the life of Celise, her chronically ill sister, by finding a permanent living space with better quality air. At present, the sisters reside on Colony 13, one of the space stations where humanity lives on, but the recycled air there is detrimental to Celise's health. The far-off planet Rhymarra is the most ideal location at present, and so Torian scrimps and saves to purchase a starship (yes, Moss' starship) that will take them there, where she hopes to attain citizenship for them both through a supposedly meritocratic process.
There's something so gutwrenching following Torian's determination to save her sister. She gives little to no thought to her own wellbeing as she weathers through life-threatening situations, such as taking on dangerous jobs for the necessary funds and the potentially risky journey into space. But I'm really pleased that Torian's priority doesn't swerve and rightfully continues to be securing a new home for Celise's health, even when we're introduced to Amelia, Torian's ex-situationship / old flame and former employer. Amelia's presence is larger in the second half, yet it is the smallest of sapphic subplots where she & Torian clear things up on how their relationship dissolved and have a key sharing moment. Thorne is clearly playing the long game here with regards to this romance, as they don't instantly get back together, but there is enough set up that'll be great for the sequel.
Even with the coziness, sci-fi is still a political genre, so certain issues that Moss'd brings up aren't lost on me. Even with the subtlety, the novel critiques the fallacies of meritocracy, whereby ultimately it is wealth & privilege that will game the system. Many human colonies are plagued with poor health conditions, yet there are technologies that could've assisted with that but aren't distributed equitably. Then with alien races come the potential for xenophobia; even Torian had to quickly unlearn the stereotypes commonly aligned with draics, a species with scales and horns who are often seen as aggressive on sight.
It feels like there's definitely a plan on growing a Found Family but I expect that'll be strengthened in the sequel. For one, the overall cast of characters that are finalised don't really spend as much time together as a UNIT in one shared space (it's mostly Moss+Torian or Torian+Celise or Torian+Amelia. And everyone is often split into separate ships while journeying as Moss' ship can only hold 2 passengers tops). Still, the different growing friendships are delightful and I can't wait to reunite with them all in Book 2.
This started out fun--snarky AI moss! Cozy space travel! Sapphic subplot!
But it was boring. I really only enjoyed this book when the moss AI was on the page, each other character bored me to tears. The main character Torian actually became annoying by the end, and her love inerest, Amelia, was as flat and cookie cuttered as their 'romance'. The rest of the plot was similarly lackluster and far too convenient, I'm sorry to say. A disappointment.
Those looking for a cozy space romp with some heartfelt moments would do better reading Becky Chambers or some Murderbot.
At this point I will read absoutely anything that Rebecca Thorne writes! The absolute queen of sapphic romance!

📅 Pub Date: June 30, 2026 Thank you to Macmillan Audio and NetGalley for the advanced listening copy.
Moss’d in Space is a sweet, cozy Sci-Fi story with several aspects I adored:
❤️ Sentient talking plant ❤️ Found Family ❤️ Cozy vibes ❤️ Funny banter ❤️ Zany side characters
Unfortunately, the story felt surface level. Most side characters were not fully present until at least the 60% mark in the story. Many obvious questions were not asked during the story. For example, why couldn’t Moss help fix one of the many existing human space station air systems? The situations lacked depth and complexity. Several injustices and issues were mentioned, but none were helped or solved, just stated and moved on from.
Thank you to Macmillan Audio for the gifted ALC of this book to read and review.
Torian, the FMC, is accepting, kind, understanding, and selfless. In my opinion, she is overshadowed by the true MC of the book: Moss! Moss is the sentient life support system on Torian’s new ship. They have abandonment issues and immediately identify Torian as its best friend. Moss is funny, snarky, nosy, and often struggles with forgiveness. I wanted more of the side characters in the story. I loved Dutch, Amelia, and Celise. Also, little Peet and Auto Nav!!!
The plot pacing was slow, with some plot points being a bit redundant and predictable. The author’s writing was smooth and entertaining. This is my first book by Rebecca Thorne.
This book lightly touches on weighty topics such as surveillance by computers, fully computer-controlled vehicles (in this case a spaceship), and the value of AI vs a book.
The world building is detailed in some parts yet basic in others. There is very little information on the smuggling companies or any political entities (human or otherwise). We learn very little about Dutch and his people and history. I am hoping more will be revealed in the next book, since this book ended in a cliffhanger.
The book narration was well done. Both narrators brought the story to life with their great character voices. I highly recommend the audio!!
This book does not contain spice or steam.
Overall, this was a sweet story with a hopeful message but lacked depth.
I am fairly certain that the bookseller of the local independent bookstore thinks I am insane. Why, you may ask? Well when she attempted to talk to me about the plot of Moss'd in space, I had to admit I didnt actually know anything about it, I just trusted the author would write something i liked so I preordered it.
But to my credit - I was completly right. I very much enjoyed Moss'd in space. This is a cozy style scifi novel about a woman's dedication for her sister and a sentient moss's desire for companionship. It's a story of a found family, who are also starting to learn that perhaps the world isn't as fair as it should be.
I love found family. It is one of my favorite tropes. I like the way that connections are built and relationships are developed. Thia story has very natural growth between the characters, and I really enjoyed seeing it.
I liked that there is romance in this book, but it is very slow burn. It is just kind of a background thread of this story, and there is going to be a lot of time to explore it in further books!
Thank you Macmillan Audio for the gifted audiobook and Tor for the gifted ebook!
✦ 𝐌𝐲 𝐓𝐡𝐨𝐮𝐠𝐡𝐭𝐬 ✦ Moss’d in Space was a cozy, charming adventure with an original premise, but the execution left me with mixed feelings.
The sentient, snarky moss computer was a huge highlight for me and the banter between protagonist Torian and MOSS provided ongoing, excellent comic relief. Their dialogue kept me coming back to this book, and the found-family dynamic among the misfit crew was genuinely heartwarming.
However, the story frequently stalled. The pacing was incredibly slow, focusing heavily on slice-of-life spaceship maintenance rather than driving a cohesive story forward. Additionally, the highly anticipated sapphic romance was such a distant slow-burn that it felt like an afterthought.
I think in spite of these issues I personally had with the book, the writing was strong, and this may work for readers who enjoy very slow paced, cozy reads.
✦ 𝗔𝘂𝗱𝗶𝗼 𝗡𝗼𝘁𝗲𝘀 ✦ Natalie Naudus is one of my favorite narrators, and she once again brought her award winning talent to her performance of Torian’s perspective. I loved how she was able to capture Torian’s determination and grit through her tone. Dylan Reilly Fitzpatrick really leaned into the dramatics for MOSS’s lines and I loved how much sarcasm and snark he added to the character. Excellent comedic timing for both of these artists, and I highly recommend the audio if you’re interested in checking out this story!

✄---------- Genre: Sci-Fi, Romance 3.5 Stars rounded up ✄----------
I just wanted to say a quick thank you to the publisher for sending me an early copy of this book to review- all thoughts are honest and my own.
this book is what I would call the definition of cosy fantasy/sci-fi. we have diverse characters who would do anything for those they care about, travelling through rich space worlds and planets, exploring new and undiscovered elements of science and also stumbling upon to old items once forgotten. a range of personalities that shouldn’t work together but do, because they all in their own weird way gel together like they were always destined to be with one another.
I really enjoyed the found family elements of this. I enjoyed seeing a mix of species / elements grow and evolve to becoming the best versions of themself through friendships and care. I think having moss as a main character was a really fun and quirky way to help the story develop and it was an interesting choice to have the focal point of the story hinge from literally moss?? I think it was cringey and camp but in such a cute and fun way
I think my reason for this not getting four stars is I do think that the plot suffered in order for the characters to develop and grow close, which is fine because its a cosy sci-fi but it did leave me wanting more. I wanted to know more about the world, its history, the missing species and where they went, how humans ended up on these stations with different creatures and species. the world at times felt more like a back drop than an actual flushed outer world- it didnt ruin the story for me because like I said I love the characters, but it did leave me wanting more.
Cozy sci-fi with heart and a grumpy twist. Torian Razner finally buys a long-abandoned alien starship to escape her dying colony, only to discover the moss coating the ship is actually Moss, a snarky, lonely organic computer with serious abandonment issues. What follows is a warm, funny adventure about unlikely partnership, healing old wounds, and building found family in deep space. Light on dense science but rich in charm, the story is perfect for readers who like character-driven sci-fi with humor, heart, and a cranky plant.
If you enjoyed the relationship between Grace and Rocky in Project Hail Mary, I’m sure you’ll find the bond between a sentient moss computer system and its pilot best friend equally compelling!
I really enjoyed this read! Thorne has a talent for crafting heartfelt characters, and her writing style is engaging. I appreciated Moss's character development throughout the story, and I found Torian's relationship with her sister to be compelling, even in its complexities. I personally loved the asthma representation with her sister as someone who is currently battling the asthma attacks that comes with spring/summer pollen.
This was an enjoyable and lighthearted (yet still emotional) book that kept me engaged.
Thank you Pan Macmillan | Tor for the digital arc.
This was such a cute, low-stakes romp through space with sentient moss, and honestly, that's enough to catch my attention. The pacing was a little slow at times, but overall I still found it to be a really enjoyable story.
The found family vibes were definitely the highlight for me, especially with the excellent sisterly relationship woven throughout the story. While it didn't quite give me the cozy feeling I was expecting, it also wasn't a high-octane sci-fi adventure. Instead, it felt like the kind of book that encourages you to slow down, enjoy the journey, and spend time with the characters.
🎧 Natalie Naudus and Dylan Reilly Fitzpatrick both did a wonderful job with the narration. They really brought the story to life, and they're both narrators I always enjoy listening to.
I was so excited to read this one since I first heard about it months ago. Studio Ghibli meets Becky Chambers vibes? My God, there couldn't be anything more up my alley. Unfortunately, this fell so far short of that lofty comp.
And to be honest, I should have seen that coming. This is not my first attempt with Rebecca Thorne, and I've come to realize that she's just not an author for me. There's absolutely nothing wrong with how or what she writes, there's nothing problematic or incorrect, but it's just not my taste whatsoever. There's a difference between cozy and babying/hand-holding, and this author doesn't seem to know how to toe that line--at least in my opinion. Everything just felt juvenile, far more so than I was expecting or was advertised. The characters read like Tumblr Millennial teenagers, the romance felt so forced and childish, the "jokes" were mostly just eyeroll or cringeworthy, and the "moss"/AI character was infuriating to me in the way it didn't know if it wanted to emulate an AIDAN style AI machine learning to think for itself, or be an actual alien just with a stoic personality. It was constantly flip flopping between the two personalities, and it drove me nuts. I felt absolutely no rush to do anything, no pressing plot to get anywhere--and that's fine in a cozy, but then you have to make up for that with great characters and relationships, and I just didn't feel that. So all I did feel was boredom.
Again, though, this is entirely a me problem, and one I've experienced with this author before. If you've read her work before and had none of the same problems, then you'll probably love this book and get everything out of it that was promised.
Thank you so much to the Macmillan Early Listeners Program for this ALC!
Moss’d in Space is a story that is a little bit outside of my personal comfort zone when it comes to stories. Torian is looking for a space ship, there are like space gangs, there’s talking moss, lots of stuff is going on. Overall, it all comes together for a very cozy sci-fi that worked well for someone just dipping their toes into this genre.
I love moss (as a plant). I’m also a huge fan of Moss, the character. Moss gives a similar vibe to Rocky in Project Hail Mary, which is delightful. Moss is sarcastic and funny, while also feeling and sharing deep emotions. I really appreciated it as a character and it was fun to get to see the world from its perspective.
Torian is a very dedicated and loyal character. Her entire purpose is to save those around her. Whether that be her sister or her “not romantic partner,” Torian will do what’s best for them. In a broader sense, she is also very self-sacrificing for the good of all humanity (and all alien life forms). She is such a selfless character to read and she is someone that wants to do good. It is easy to root for her.
There were parts of this book that took twists and turns that I was not anticipating. As someone new to sci-fi, it was at times hard to follow these parts, especially in an audio format. Despite some of my initial confusion, these twists kept me engaged to see how the story would turn out.
The multiple narrators for this book did a really great job. The different voices for different characters helped me to determine what was going on and it felt like listening to a movie at times. Highly recommend the audio, especially because I don’t think I would’ve had the correct pronunciations for most places.
Overall, I’d recommend this to anyone wanting a cozy, sci-fi story.
