If you loved how Ryann’s scrappy friend group rallies around her—helping with baby Charlie, spending nights on the rooftop, and folding Alexandria into their orbit—then you’ll click with the Wayfarer crew in The Long Way to a Small, Angry Planet. Like Ryann’s misfits, Rosemary, Sissix, Jenks, and the rest aren’t bound by blood, but by choice, care, and shared routines. It’s warm, humane, and full of small, everyday acts of loyalty that echo the found-family heartbeat of The Weight of the Stars.

Ryann and Alexandria start prickly—those early confrontations before the rooftop stargazing truce—and slowly learn to read each other’s silences. In The Abyss Surrounds Us, monster trainer Cassandra and pirate heir Swift begin as captor and captive, forced into working side by side until wariness turns to understanding and then to something more. If the slow thaw between Ryann and Alexandria hooked you, Cas and Swift’s evolving bond will hit that same nerve.

Like Ryann’s late-night recordings to Alexandria’s astronaut mother and the way the stars become a canvas for longing, We Are the Ants uses an offbeat sci‑fi premise to get at raw, human questions. Henry is told by abductors he can choose whether Earth survives; what matters is how that cosmic weight refracts through grief, love, and messy teen life—much like the space-mission backdrop in The Weight of the Stars frames Ryann and Alexandria’s healing.

If you were invested in Ryann balancing care for her brother James and baby Charlie while falling for Alexandria—and how a space program quietly reshapes their daily lives—The Gravity of Us offers that same intimacy. When Cal’s dad joins a NASA mission, media frenzy and family pressure collide with a tender romance. The scale stays personal, like those rooftop nights and whispered plans that make The Weight of the Stars feel so immediate.

The unhurried cadence of Ryann and Alexandria’s ritual—daily rooftop meetups, steady messages beamed into the dark, patience that pays off—finds a kindred spirit in A Psalm for the Wild-Built. A tea monk and a robot wander, talk, and slowly arrive at a meaningful, hopeful connection. If the slow build and soft landing of The Weight of the Stars moved you, this contemplative road of small moments will, too.
