I am good at suspending my disbelief for a good story. I just need some character depth, a decent plot, and perhaps a sprinkling of funny, suspenseful, or heart-warming moments. While this book had a few heart-warming moments, it lacked all the rest. I truly felt like I was reading an early draft in...
whenever I try to think of how to describe this book I hear Werner Herzog saying "clumsy".There are better Space Exploration Horrors out there, but if you're into the genre, you take what it gives you and enjoy it. I wanted more from this in the way it was put together (barely any character developm...
It is the not to distant future and NASA wants to send astronauts back to the moon on a super secret mission. The reason they tell the world they are going to the moon is not the actual reason. And to receive more money and support for their efforts, NASA is opening up a lottery to teenagers. Thr...
Via LectusNorwegian novelist John Harstad creates a frightening trip to “explore” moon that includes three teenagers randomly chosen through a lottery.I’m going to tell you right away, the first half of the book is quite boring! The main characters: Mia, Antoine and Midori and underdeveloped and I n...
So, I heard a lot about 172 Hours on the Moon before it came out. And I was intrigued. Teenagers on the moon? Secret government base? Sign me up. At the end of the day, 172 Hours has pros and cons (as all books do) and I almost liked it in theory better than in practice. This book had one important ...
4.5 stars!!I didn’t mean to read it all in one day but I just had to know how it all played out once they all got picked, once they all got strapped into the space shuttle and then when they landed, I knew my day was shot…..I was destined to finish this book all in one day, no doubt about it. One of...
The Page SageWhat did I just read?That's pretty much what I'm thinking about this book. Some words to describe it are terrifying, disturbing, and utterly mind-boggling. Just, what?172 Hours starts out a little slow. Some of it is, I think, that there's a lot of build up, plus the book has been trans...
Who knows what's really out there?IT'S THE OPPORTUNITY OF A LIFETIME...IF THEY MAKE IT BACK ALIVE.This book. This book. I have so many things to say.First of all: the romance between Antoine and Mia. It was so short, and practically nonexistent, and basically unexplained, but it was so...adorable? P...
I didn't finish this book. It just wasn't for me and, quite frankly, I found it horrible.There was info-dumping, terminology I didn't understand and I could relate to none of the characters. The plot was drawn out and I'm sorry to say this, but it was boring. The pace wasn't fast enough for my likin...
The ending of this book is downright creepy. I'm still not sure whether I liked the way it ended (because I thought it was unpredictable, but kind of dumb at the same time in terms of ENDING a tale like this). I wonder if there will be more books written to turn this into a series or not, but it was...
