Atmosphere: A GMA Book Club Pick: A Love Story 

Atmosphere by Taylor Jenkins Reid

#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • GOOD MORNING AMERICA BOOK CLUB PICK

From the author of The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo and Daisy Jones & The Six comes an epic new novel set against the backdrop of the 1980s space shuttle program—a story about the extraordinary lengths we go to live and love beyond our limits.

“Thrilling . . . heartbreaking . . . uplifting . . . the fast-paced, emotionally charged story of one ambitious young woman, finding both her voice and her passion.” —Kristin Hannah

“NASA? Space missions? The ’80s? This is a collection of all the things I love.” —Andy Weir

Joan Goodwin has been obsessed with the stars for as long as she can remember. A physics and astronomy professor at Rice University, she’s content with her quiet life—until she sees an ad seeking the first women scientists to join NASA’s space shuttle program. Suddenly, Joan burns to be one of the few to go to space.

Selected from thousands of applicants in 1980, Joan begins training at Houston’s Johnson Space Center alongside an exceptional group of candidates: Top Gun pilot Hank Redmond, scientist John Griffin, mission specialist Lydia Danes, warmhearted Donna Fitzgerald, and magnetic engineer Vanessa Ford. Together they form unexpected friendships, testing their limits as they prepare for their first flights.

But when the unthinkable happens on mission STS-LR9 in December 1984, everything changes in an instant.

Fast-paced, thrilling, and emotional, Atmosphere is Taylor Jenkins Reid at her best—transporting readers through time and space in a passionate story about ambition, love, and the courage to reach for the stars.
