Ein spannendes Buch war die Astronautin!
Worum geht es?
Wir befinden uns im Jahr 2067 auf einem hochmodernen Raumschiff. Commander May Knox erwacht auf der Krankenstation und kann sich an kaum etwas erinnern. Um sie herum herrscht Chaos und keiner aus ihrem Team ist auffindbar. Ihr bleibt nur noch Eve ihre KI (Künstliche Intelligenz) zum Reden. Doch auch Eve ist beschädigt und es scheint so, als hätte es ein totales Blackout auf dem Raumschiff gegeben. Doch dies ist erst der Anfang, neben der fehlenden Besatzung ist das Raumschiff auch schwer zugerichtet und ein Problem jagt das nächste. Der Kontakt zur NASA ist unterbrochen und May weiss; sie ist absolut auf sich allein gestellt und befindet sich im äusseren Universum ohne einen konkreten Kurs…

Un libro que me tuvo al borde de lo que iba a pasar todo el tiempo, un thriller emocionante y diferente.

I don’t really read enough sci-fi, especially given it was one of my dad’s favourite genres and I inherited lots of his books.
But I was given this book for Christmas and it may have ignited a sci-fi spark in me - it was fantastic - full of tense moments but full of character development too, I found it thoroughly compelling.
Around a third of the way through it got a little slow but once I pushed through that I was completely captivated and read the last 300 pages in one sitting, so absorbed that I didn’t even really notice how many pages I was turning.
Given it’s not my usual genre I had not much idea what to expect but it was full of twists and turns and enough excitement to keep me enthralled. I’ll definitely be picking up more sci-fi this year!

This sounded really good and wanted to enjoy this more than I did. The premise sounded like my thing completely but sadly I couldn’t connect with the characters, didn’t seem enough to hold my interest and the pacing had issues. Was so promising but sadly not for me
Thanks to netgalley and the publisher for a free copy for an honest review

This book was great!
It was so readable. From the very first page the chapters just flew by - with some books there is a set up period at the very start that can be tough to get through, but not with this one! I could not stop reading and when I tried to put it down another awesome thing happened and I just had to keep reading! A few late nights were had because of that!
I urge you to pick this one up - just make sure you do not have to be up too early the next morning!
5 Stars - So so good. Compulsively readable.

I liked that it is about a Black and woman as commander in space who is trying to survive. I liked that it includes multiple perspectives and numerous flashbacks. I particularly enjoyed the first third of the book, because it was atmospheric, it keeps the reader guessing what is actually happening and you can easily think of a number of interesting scenarios and suspects that may have caused the current conditions. Unfortunately, the plot itself felt very predictable and bland after a while and nothing interesting happened anymore. If someone died, I could not have cared less. The focus on relationships and was to be reckoned with but it was just so boring. The science fiction elements did not really matter as well, which was a bummer.
