Epsilon Nine by Olive J. Kelley

SPOILERS FOR “JUNKER SEVEN”!

Six months after the attack on Adrestia, trans activist Juno Marcus finds her revolution at a standstill—they've been forced into hiding, only leaving the uncharted planet they call home to participate in protests as the Galactic Presidential Election grows near. But, when she and girlfriend Castor Quasar are torn apart in a riot, she finds herself directed to safety by a mysterious, anonymous signal—a transmission only signed as EPSILON 09.

However, while revolution moves quick, the galaxy moves quicker, and Juno and the rest of the rebels find themselves embroiled in conflict after conflict—a once-green planet ravaged by spilled oil, a fundraising gala that ends in blood, and a threat that forces Castor to confront old wounds. As the election grows nearer every day and messages from EPSILON containing impossible intel grow more frequent, Juno starts to question everything she thought she knew. Is she doing enough? Is the galaxy's democracy still worth saving?

Or is it time to burn it all down and build something new from the ashes?

being in academia is kind of like where you're on everest and you see the frozen bodies of the other people who've tried it strewn about everywhere and you think "okay, but that's them and i'm me"
