Anne McCaffrey's 'The ship who sang'. I've read it about 20 years ago (borrowed from the library) and loved it, and I finally bought it a few weeks ago. Read the first story in the train this morning, and I loved it again.
For those who don't know the book: Helva is a disfigured baby whose brain is used to command a ship. During her training she learned to sing, which is an anomaly for a brainship, and after her first trip she's known as 'the ship who sings'. The book is a fixup of 6 short stories of her adventures (5 previously published, one written for the bundle).
