Joanne Murphy’s Reviews > Do You Dream of Terra-Two? > Status Update

Getting there now. They key to reading this is not to get stuck on the potential formality of astronaut selection and training. This is a story about growing up, achieving/realising your dreams, forming relationships and having to live with your choices.

It's little details like "the light from buzzing fluorescent lamps..." that take me out of this story. Otherwise, still well written

OK - so there are some plot holes. I am concerned about a crew thatbhave spent 6 years in training, but no one seems tonhave thought it worth training the backup crew to the same level so they're...unfamiliar with the ship, the crew and its routines. But it is still very readable.

Very readable. I'm enjoying it so far; meeting the characters and understanding their hopes, dreams, fears and aspirations. And the bitter sweet reality of achieving them.
