The first half of this book moved super fast and was really engaging, but then it kind of lost me. I also liked the characters but so many POVs made it feel like they were all a little underdeveloped. But - great space read about kids just trying to make it work.

Overall an enjoyable book even though the plot felt a little slow. Characters at time felt a little unfinished, and subplots were sometimes abandoned (specifically Harry’s). Poppy’s also was confusing, like how she went from running from the cameras to weeks (days?) later being the comms person?

This book … it captivated me and pissed me off at the same time. 
A group of young teenagers who train for and eventually go on a 20+year Spacetrip. 

Non-spoilery Flaws in the book:
I really found that there could have been more continued exploration of the characters. Some of the growth was sudden and weirdly unexplained. Some seemed to be forgotten in between and some were really unnecessary and just there. 
Still, it kept me going until the very end and I can’t say I was disappointed.
