I will be honest, I wasn’t sure what to expect and once I started reading I was getting a little overwhelmed with all the science and information that pretty much was going over my head. BUT…and this is a big BUT….I took a moment to take the words in as best I can and soon enough I was totally getting what they were saying and seriously was so invested in these women’s lives that I was hook and then blown away.
The science part is pretty much in the beginning, the world is a mess and a group of woman want to travel to start a new world on a planet that is similar to earth. The build up is amazing and just the slow way that it tells the story, I loved it. I was super invested in Naomi Lovelace and her story. The book is told in her POV but it goes back and forth from past to present. It is scary how much of this world is similar to ours today and how climate change and disease has cause the world to start dying, not to mention the president sucks too. (sorry Trump supporters)
The story has lots of twists and turns. I wasn’t sure where the story was going but even when it is all said and done I wasn’t sure if it would be a happy ending. I want to go into full details about this book and tell you all the things that were amazing but I feel like I would give so much away since I went into it not know that much, I just found the synopsis so interested and I am not a Sci-Fi reader. Complex stories often confuse me but this was amazing! I already grabbed her next book.
Overall I loved this book, I can’t even explain how much I have been thinking about it even after a few weeks. This story had great characters, twists and a world that was similar to our own. I want more people to read this book and enjoy it. I think this is a great read for Adults, Young Adults and Maybe even mature teens. I highly recommend and can’t wait to read more from Laura Lam
Amazing story, this is one of those stories that will stay with you long after. Check out Michelle's Review Share on XThanks for stopping by to check out my review.

Oh, you sold this. I love the sound of the world building. Great review Michelle!
Thanks Kim. It was really an awesome book. Just the idea of space and a dying world. I would love to one day write s review more in detail because this book had so much.
Glad you were able to take in the science and start to understand it. That is what I am not a huge fan of in science fiction…lol.
That’s what I thought but it was me over thinking because it’s easy to understand. It’s a good book 🙂 maybe one you could grab from the library and try.
Glad it really consumed you when you stuck with it. 🙂
