Atmosphere: A Love Story | Taylor Jenkins Reid
post image
Pickpick

Taylor Jenkins Reid is an expert at making you care about her characters. The novel is a love story set in NASA during the early 1980s, the early years of the Space Shuttle program, and it touches on sexism and homophobia. And that ending!!

Also - I much prefer the UK cover to the US one.

A soft pick for me. I enjoyed the slow burn investigative element, and the court room scenes, but something about the writing style niggled me slightly. With the MC “snuffling” and saying things “in his gentle way” I sometimes felt like I was reading a Bagpuss script. I probably will read the second in the series, though.

Picture shows the Inner Temple garden.

TheEllieMo Much of the novel takes place in the garden; the Inner Temple is one of the four Inns of Court in London. 5h

While I enjoyed this book, it was not as good as the first book. I didn't like the characters and the plot as much. Very steamy like book one and dark so read the trigger warnings. 3.5⭐️ #SeriesLove2025 @Andrew65

58/100 If you enjoy laughing at the stupidity, arrogance, and hubris of man, then you will enjoy this. Starting in the 50's and moving to the present, it covers many of the US government's hairbrained plots and plans. Ed Helms makes for a pleasant narrator, he definitely enjoys his subject and tells it in a conversational manner, as if you were meeting at a party and he was giving you tidbits of history trivia. 3.5/5 #Read2025

Another cute hockey romance. Enough tension in the plot to keep my interest all served with a side of steam. Great main characters and banter added to my enjoyment. 4⭐️

It's a good spy novel. Fast-paced and a page turner with a good setup for book 2.#SeriesLove25 #Read2025 #ISpyBingoJune @Andrew65 @TheSpineView @DieAReader @TheAromaofBooks

This book left me feeling lukewarm. I read as an audiobook and by half in, I was listening with one ear. I didn't care for either of the characters and had to force myself to finish. 2.5 ⭐️ A lot of people raved about this book and the whole series. I don't know if I will read book 2. Are the other books better? #SeriesLove2025 @Andrew65 #Read2025 @DieAReader

57/100 One thing I like about John Constantine is he's consistent, he's always going to #$%@ thing up, probably kill some people, destroy some lives, drink and smoke A LOT, then come out on top in the end. The idea of a married Constantine is mind blowing, but if anyone could handle him, it seems to be Epiphany. 4/5 ⭐ #Read2025 #SeriesLove2025

When I started reading this, I wasn‘t sure it was going to be my sort of thing. But by then end, I was so invested in the characters, willing Gail to not let me down (she didn‘t!). This short novel is an exquisite exploration for relationships and forgiveness. I adored it.
