A Closed and Common Orbit

I've read five out of the six nominees for the Hugo award for this year, and this is the first book I loved. The story is about Lovelace, an AI who gets transferred out of her ship after a complete shutdown and reboot and into her own synthetic body. Now she must learn to navigate existence as an individual. With her is Pepper, an engineer with a disturbing past. As Lovelace's journey unfolds, we also delve into Pepper's past, learning about her harsh childhood and her previous experiences with spaceship AI.
