Historically significant (0 more)
It's very long. (0 more)
A scientifically important series of novellas.
The author makes many predictions of future technology which so far have all come true. He predicted the internet, search engines, handheld smartphone devices, GPS, sentient AI, and many other elements of today's society that he couldn't possibly have known about when this book was written.

This was much better than "50 Shades of Creepy-Ass Sexual Abuse."

The main character was actually someone who had had a life before the book started!

There were no inner goddesses krumping about in someone's noggin.

The only problem I had with it was given the title of the series, the ending was pretty obvious.

I thought this book was really nice. The language was simple for children to understand and it had loads of really good images. I think that this series is meant to be encouraging girls to be whatever they want - which is great! - but it was unclear that the astronaut was female and this might deter girls a bit....maybe.

I liked this story, not as much as [b:Heist Society|6574102|Heist Society (Heist Society, #1)|Ally Carter|https://d.gr-assets.com/books/1359254479s/6574102.jpg|6767235] though. It seemed slower moving and I wasn't as into it as I thought I might have been.

I am interested in reading the next book in the series soon.

I struggled from the beginning with this. It wasn't the smoothest read and I didn't understand the relationship she had going with Clay, it was so dysfunctional. Then there was the length of the book; info dump occasionally, unnecessary bits that I skipped all together and just boredom in places.

I won't be continuing the series.
