Who knows, maybe life is possible on the ring of twilight where it's not too hot and not too cold. The planet where the Twi'leks in Star Wars are from is that way. Always sounded plausible to me.
Been doing some googling. Most stars are dwarf stars, and the habitable band of a red dwarf is so close the tidal forces are way stronger. It might turn out that most habitable planets are tidally locked.
There's a book called The City In The Middle Of The Night that takes place on a tidally locked planet. It has politics, science fiction, and lesbians.
My favorite things!
It also kinda makes you feel like shit, but in a really good way.
Even better
