The Darkness Outside Us

Average rating4
Earth's population is divided between only two existing countries which cannot manage to cooperate in any way, until a distress signal arrives from Titan's first settler. Neither country can afford to rescue her on their own if they act separately. Ambrose wakes up on board the Coordinated Endeavour under strange circumstances: he doesn't remember the launch, the ship's OS is voiced by his mother, strangers have been aboard, and Kodiak, the only other person on this mission, has barricaded himself away from sight. But nothing will stop Ambrose from making this mission succeed-- not when the settler he's rescuing is his sister.

This book is not what you think it is and part of me absolutely loved it and part of me never wants to read a scifi book ever again
but also this book also had an almost identical plotline to another 2021 YA release I've read this year *cough* [b:The Ones We're Meant to Find|44084665|The Ones We're Meant to Find|Joan He|https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1600354595l/44084665._SY75_.jpg|68554141], if you really wanted to know honestly that is kind of unfortunate for both books but at least this one was lgbtq+
This was awesome and it gets 5 stars for the amazing story and the plot twists.
Stop comparing this book to ‘the loneliest girl in the universe' which was such a mess. I hated that book more and more with each page but this one I fell in love with deeper.
Audiobook narration was great. Everyone sounded different and had different accents so it was fun.
—minor spoilers—
No one updated their BIOS while the damn spaceship was running

I'm interested in new genre books where the setting is almost like a character. I'm especially interested in books that also have a strong plot. For me, the prime example is "Finch" by Jeff vander...
