I love a story that dances around a major event ([book:Leave the World Behind|50358031] with the apocalypse, anyone?) and this did not disappoint. There are a lot of works out there about First Contact, but This Weightless World knocks it out of the park when it comes to viewing the events impact on the every day person. Sure, Ramona carries more 'main character' energy that kind of throws off that vibe, but it <i>works</i> and ties it together without being thrown in your face.

The only drawback to this story is the fact that it feels paced a little slow - but that's not a HUGE drawback considering what I did like about this. I really would love to read more books like This Weightless World.

Thank you to NetGalley, Astra House, and Adam Soto for an ARC in exchange for an honest review.

<s>I also really like the cover even though I didn't at first? idk</s>
