Life in the outer realm is a lawless, dirty, hard existence, and Solara Brooks is hungry for it. Just out of the orphanage, she needs a fresh start in a place where nobody cares about the engine grease beneath her fingernails or the felony tattoos across her knuckles. She's so desperate to reach the realm that she's willing to indenture herself to Doran Spaulding, the rich and popular quarterback who made her life miserable all through high school, in exchange for passage aboard the spaceliner Zenith. When a twist of fate lands them instead on the Banshee, a vessel of dubious repute, Doran learns he's been framed on Earth for conspiracy. As he pursues a set of mysterious coordinates rumored to hold the key to clearing his name, he and Solara must get past their enmity to work together and evade those out for their arrest. Life on the Banshee may be tumultuous, but as Solara and Doran are forced to question everything they once believed about their world--and each other--the ship becomes home, and the eccentric crew family. But what Solara and Doran discover on the mysterious Planet X has the power to not only alter their lives, but the existence of everyone in the universe... 

I'm a pretty big Melissa Landers' fan, if you didn't know. I adore the Alienated trilogy and am super excited to be knowing that Melissa has another book out! (And book 2 of Alienated out later this year!) 

I enjoy reading sci-fi books. I love those space books and books that don't take place in this real world! It's great to get out of this world once in awhile and sci-fi books are able to help me with just that! Based on the synopsis, I can already tell (and hope!) I am going to enjoy it. Solara and Doran sound like great and interesting characters. Also, the synopsis kind of reminds me of These Broken Stars and I really enjoyed These Broken Stars. Super excited to read Starflight and enjoy it! (Also, they changed the font on the cover! Honestly, I really loved the typography for the original cover but this one works just as fine.)
