JoCo Book Club – May 
Source:  Libby Text
Because it was on hold on Libby, it came through and I didn’t remember why I had reserved it (other than I like MRK!), so I just started reading.  Then, realized that I was SUPER AHEAD for JoCo Book Club!
 
Enjoyed this story.  I appreciate the work that she has done in science to work on her space books.  From the mystery angle, I had no idea ‘whodunit’ so that was also fun.  (And who could have suspected?)
 
Because we’ve been on a cruise ship with her, it was even more fun how she works in the cruise pieces.  I learned in the acknowledgements that she goes on more cruises than with just us, but the language of cruising is the same across the board.  “A cruise ship in space.”
