so-soA bit on the dry side. The reason I love Andy Weir so much is that he combines science and interesting character with humor and emotions. This book was missing that character spark for me.
pickBk3 of January 2022 & #JumpStart2022 is done! I first started this before Xmas but wasn‘t in the mood for it, picked it back up last night & flew through it today. A Cold War spy thriller set in the Apollo missions, it‘s written by real astronaut & Canadian nice guy Colonel Hadfield who has the experience to add the details that make it believable.🚀I highly recommend⭐️ #Booked2022 #InvolvesAnExploration #Pop22 #BookspinBingo #SpaceTimeReads👇
Currently taking advantage of the quiet(it‘s past midnight & the grandson is asleep. For now🙄)and have picked back up this space espionage novel by a former astronaut. Just didn‘t grab me in December, but I‘m enjoying it so far this time round. Plus I love Chris Hadfield, you should check him out on YouTube. Lovely Canadian man👨🏻 #JumpStart2022

@Texreader thanks for the tag!
pickMoon police is a cartoon about the absurdity of the policeman duty on a deserted moon base. Tom Gauld humor is absolutely fabulous.
pickOkay this baby book is not in the database which isn't surprising but it is pretty cool so I wanted to show it. The pages feel like paper but are stronger, able to be wiped down, and don't have sharp edges. The illustrations are gorgeous! The words are simple, just "goodnight" and counting nighttime objects like the moon from one to five. On the edge there is a BPA free teething strip, since we all know babies put everything in their mouths.
I LOVED this book! Middle school Kena would have 100% wanted to be like Aurora. Thank you random Reddit stranger for suggesting this title to me after I asked for book recommendations that were similar to the movie, “Real Genius.” Paula Danziger books capture the thoughts and feelings of tweens so well, even across different generations.
so-so3 🌟 A penguin is tired of being the small thing among this big friends. So they develop a plan to go into space and land on the moon. Once there, penguin realizes being all by himself is lonely, so back to earth it is. This story was nice. I think it has been done before by other authors and other ways. It was nice, but it will not be something that is still on shelves in 20 years.
