Atmosphere by Taylor Jenkins Reid
I've read everything by Taylor Jenkins Reid and always love her characters more than anything else. I feel like she dives so deep into these characters they become real people. And that was certainly true here. Even the side characters felt like real friends now hovering at the edges of my social circle.
I started reading this one in the library as soon as my hold came in and finished it the next day. I love Reid’s approach to humans and connections and thought this was really well done. The astronaut aspect was interesting to me but I’m not big into space so if there were any issues there, I didn’t notice - I was here for the relationships. And she does them so well, and makes them feel so complete. Even though the story covers a lot of time, I felt like there were enough details to make it feel like a satisfying, complete story I could get invested in.
