About this listen

Teen boys find love when their parents' NASA mission uproots their lives in this sweet debut perfect for Adam Silvera fans.

As a successful social media journalist with half a million followers, 17-year-old Cal is used to sharing his life online. But when his pilot father is selected for a highly publicized NASA mission to Mars, Cal and his family relocate from Brooklyn to Houston and are thrust into a media circus.

Amidst the chaos, Cal meets sensitive and mysterious Leon, another "Astrokid", and finds himself falling head over heels - fast. As the frenzy around the mission grows, so does their connection. But when secrets about the program are uncovered, Cal must find a way to reveal the truth without hurting the people who have become most important to him.

Expertly capturing the thrill of first love and the self-doubt all teens feel, debut author Phil Stamper is a new talent to watch.

Cute Story with beautiful relationships

I was able to fall in love with all of the characters in different ways, and see the intricacies in their personalities and their morals. I'm so glad I have stories like these to listen to and to read, and Phil created a masterpiece

Entertaining !

The book got off to a slow start but after a bit the gravity of the story sets in. The performers were excellent as you are drawn into the characters and the young innocence of love. A unique tale of two boys in a setting of pre-space exploration and the drama of family and media set on the backdrop of a NASA space mission makes the story come alive. I recommend this audio book.
