Adrift
by Rob Boffard
You know a book's good when you're reluctant to put it down at the end of your commute and are desperate to steal any moment possible to read more of it. "Adrift" is fantastic: limited viewpoints, so we get heavily invested in a few key people, see the situation from multiple perspectives and also don't learn everything that's going on with certain characters until it's too late. The spaceship obsessed Corey might just have been my favourite, but I had a soft spot for the hard as nails pilot Volkova and the Guide, Hannah. Who am I kidding...all of the characters were amazing and I ended up liking almost all of them by the end. Beginning with an explosive opening (literally as well as figuratively), every chapter presents another issue for the group of tourists and it was great seeing how the specialities of such a disparate group of people all came together to help resolve the problems which keep arising. And that plot twist? No spoilers, but I didn't see it coming and it was the best game-changer ever. I am definitely going to be reading more of Rob Boffard's books, if they're anything like this one.
