Atmosphere

TJR is surely the queen of escapist fiction

Sunday Telegraph

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.

Kristin Hannah, author of 'The Women'

NASA? Space missions? The 80s? This is a collection of all the things I love. Great story, excellent research and accuracy, and a thrilling conclusion.

Andy Weir, author of 'Project Hail Mary' and 'The Martian'

A richly drawn page-turner ... It would take a stony reader to turn away from its pleasures ... Melding action thriller emergency with star-crossed romance ... I'd be lying if I said my eyes weren't wet by the end
