I learned of Kate Grenville through Litsy and have become such a huge fan. At first I wasn't that crazy about this one, but after a small break, I loved it and I was sad to see it end. She is so good at writing about this period of Australian history. 4.5 🌟
5⭐
•I don‘t even have to know what a TJR book is about, because I know she‘s going to make it wholly worthwhile, regardless, and this book was no exception. She pulls emotion out of you like no other writer. My only nitpick: she spent an overabundance of time on the romance aspect, and I just wanted to get back to the tragedy on the spaceship.
•The narration by Kristen DiMercurio & Julia Whelan was fantastically performed.
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.

Also, CONGRATULATIONS to The Safekeep for winning the Women's Prize for Fiction 2025!
This book is special.
Eerie, erotic, moving, unsettling... it was one of my absolute favourites of last year and I'm thrilled to bits that it won 🥰

I finished my reread of this book, and although I thoroughly enjoyed it, it‘s not one of my favorites of the series. Part of what keeps me invested in these stories is the dynamic between the characters, and I felt some of that was missing here. I did find the mysteries intriguing, and, as always, the depiction of Tudor England was fantastic.
