Atmosphere: A Love Story

by Taylor Jenkins Reid

The bestselling author of Daisy Jones & the Six and The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo returns with a book set in 1980 about a physics and astronomy professor, Joan Goodwin, who responds to an advertisement for the first women scientists to join NASA’s Space Shuttle program. Thoughtful and reserved, she finds that training at Houston’s Johnson Space Center, alongside her fellow astronauts and their subsequent mission in 1984, proves life-transforming.
