Gravity by Tess Gerritsen

4.0

I've read a number of Gerritsen novels over the years; predominantly the Rizzoli + Isles series. Gravity was quite a jump from those, what with it being in space and all. At first I wasn't so sure how I'd connect with it as it's not my usual kind of setting for a read. HOWEVER, I thoroughly enjoyed it. The claustrophobia element of it had me feeling genuinely tense throughout, not to mention the detailed + downright disgusting (love it!!) descriptions of the symptoms, disease progression etc. The only slight issue was, whilst I admire the research, the use of a number of NASA terminology. There is a glossary at the back but I found myself not bothering going backwards + forwards to look up abbreviations. Still a definite 4 star read, without a doubt
