Too much voice, not deep enough into the science
Clearly a well-researched book. It has some interesting information, but didn't truly go very deeply into any of it. I was most bothered by the voice of the author, which I found off-putting and, at times, juvenile. At one point, she suggests that an astronaut who was sexually assaulted by another astronaut should have had more cross-cultural training to avoid sending out innuendos. She has wink-wink-nudge-nudge style that she mostly employs to make comments about poop and sex. Overall, I felt talked down to, and only kept going because there was some interesting indo about the space program.
