Atmosphere: A Love story by Taylor Jenkins Reed. Book Cover
'To look at the night sky is to look at parts of who you once were, who you may one day be'.
Thrilling ... heartbreaking ... uplifting ... Taylor Jenkins Reid's novel Atmosphere is the fast-paced, emotionally charged story of one ambitious young woman, finding both her voice and her passion, as she fights to become one of the first female NASA astronauts in the 1980s. You'll barrel through this electric novel, rooting for the women to not only succeed in the space program but to soar. A pitch-perfect ending ... I loved it.
Back cover quote provided by Kristin Hannah, author of The Women
📚 This months pick is a spellbinding tale by Taylor Jenkins Reid. Her book, Atmosphere, is love story in all senses of the phrase.
