This book is about grief and loss, but also about hope. Juli, the protagonist, faces a lot of different struggles in her life, and we, as readers, can easily empathize with her. She's grieving her sister, who recently passed away, and trying to find her place in the world as a teenager. When a private space program recruits her, she feels she might have found the answer to all of her questions. Gloria Muñoz has crafted a novel that is gripping and hopeful. With beautiful prose, the author offers a poingnant and honest exploration of immigrants' exploitation and the damages of the climate crisis. Finding your place in this world, a world that puts profit over everything else, is more complicated than it seems. Highly recommend checking this out!
