Oh wow, das war mal eine Enttäuschung. Null Gruselfaktor, furchtbare Charaktere. Bis zum Twist war ich schon echt gespannt was denn nun mit der Aurora und der Crew von Claire passiert ist aber als die Katze dann endlich aus dem Sack war, ist meine Enttäuschung nur gestiegen. Was ein langweiliger Twist das war und das Ende genauso lame.

The romance subplot was unnecessary. I would have given the book 4 stars without it.
This was an ok read. This scifi horror was more scifi than horror which took a very long time to get going.
I really enjoyed this! I don't get space travel or sci-fi all that much but I was literally on the edge of my seat the whole time. Like, it was terrifying.
The company being behind it was not necessarily surprising but I liked it as the twist. And I'm honestly glad Claire and Kane got their happy ending.
The narrator was also AMAZING. Like the fear in her voice was so real that she was scaring me as much as the scenes.
Really great!

I enjoyed both the story and the narrator for this book. It was thrilling with a hint of supernatural but also a very realistic take. I will be reading more by this author. Perfect Halloween read for Sci-Fi lovers!

I loved it. Fantastic atmosphere and an intriguing plot.
I went in expecting space horror - some sci fi, terror, and fear - instead I just got some ghosts. I needed more horror, more feeling trapped in space. This just felt very watered down and the romance seemed misplaced and half-assed. And the epilogue? Should've just ended it.
Aaa this started SO good and the first half was genuinely creepy and so suspenseful. It loses a lot with the amnesia plotline and the rushed ending though. At first it was very event horizon but by the end it was Aliens without the xenomorphs sigh.
Claire is the sole survivor of a space disaster years back when she accidentally broke a quarantine, killing her whole colony. Haunted by ghosts (metaphorical and literal) she's only found peace in the smallest crewed missions repairing satellites in the middle of nowhere space. Unfortunately, she and her crew come across a long-presumed destroyed luxury cruise ship that is filled with 600 dead passengers but worth tantalizing millions in recovery.
Claire recounts this whole story in a hospital to corporate suits who are the most irritating and obviously evil ever. Having received a head injury sometime during her stint on the cruise ship, she doesn't remember everything of what happened - but she knows people died and they all saw impossible things. This could have been interesting if we actually ever got to see it, but basically we never find out what happened during that time and it's a shame for the crew that dies during that time - they were mostly interesting characters and it felt like they got shortchanged.
I thought for a while it was going for an eldritch/alien situation (there were signed of something big moving around in the atrium!! CMON) but sigh. so didn't totally stick the landing but the first half was really good I thought.
