Currents Reads & Reviews: Battle of the Books

Landers, Melissa. Starflight. Disney Pr, 2017. ISBN: 1484723244 

Summary: Life in the outer realm is a lawless, dirty, hard existence, and Solara Brooks is hungry for it. Just out of the orphanage, she needs a fresh start in a place where nobody cares about the engine grease beneath her fingernails or the felony tattoos across her knuckles. She's so desperate to reach the realm that she's willing to indenture herself to Doran Spaulding, the rich and popular quarterback who made her life miserable all through high school, in exchange for passage aboard the spaceliner Zenith.

Analysis: I did not want to put it down! The banter and chemistry between Solara and Doran drew me in immediately. I fell for them both. I loved all the shipmates on the Banshee! Such a fun ride, intense at times, while laughing out loud at others. On to the sequel and conclusion to the story!
