Read a book about space travel

[Emily]

We've explored the world we inhabit, now let us venture out into the stars.

Some suggestions:

The Martian by Andy Weir
The Loneliest Girl in the Universe by Lauren James
The Long Way to a Small, Angry Planet by Becky Chambers
Lucy and the Rocket Dog by Will Buckingham
Space Opera by Catherynne M. Valente

[Nikki]

I was considering Moonbound: Apollo 11 and the Dream of Spaceflight by Jonathan Fetter-Vorm but obviously didn't look at my shelves because I still have Space Opera from the last crate so I'll have to use that one!

[Stacy]

I’m thinking Last Day on Mars by Kevin Emerson for this one

[Karen]

I just finished To Be Taught, If Fortunate by Becky Chambers

[Lindsay]

I read Children of Ruin by Adrian Tchaikovsky. It is Book 2 in a series, so I also recommend Children of Time (Book 1). Both are really outstanding books.

Does Hidden Figures count for this category?

[Spencer]

I had three that counted for this category *d'oh!*

Long Way to a Small Angry Planet
I Love you Michael Collins
Dragon Pearl

I haven't read the book, but it is on my short list right now! Yes, it fits this category beautifully.
