Goldilocks by Laura Lam
Expected Publication: May 5th, 2020
From Goodreads:
The Handmaid's Tale meets The Martian in this bold and thought-provoking apocalyptic thriller about an all-female space mission determined to save humanity.
Ravaged by environmental disaster, greed, and oppression, our planet is in crisis. The future of the human race hangs in the balance -- and one woman can tip it over.
Despite increasing restrictions on the freedoms of women on Earth, Valerie Black is spearheading the first all-female mission to a planet in the Goldilocks Zone, where conditions are just right for human habitation. It's the last hope for human survival, and Naomi, Valerie's surrogate daughter and the ship's botanist, has been waiting her whole life for an opportunity like this -- to step out of Valerie's shadow and really make a difference.
But when things start going wrong on the ship, Naomi begins to suspect that someone on board is concealing a terrible secret -- and realizes time for life on Earth may be running out faster than they feared . . .
Yeah, this book sounds fantastic, and I'm so excited to read it! What about you guys? Happy reading!
