May 01, 2022This is an easy-to-read story that is a little on the slower side, and the narrative style feels very much like slice-of-life. There is a main storyline that each chapter contributes to, but each chapter is also presented like the continued adventures of Mutta trying to be an astronaut. There are a lot of flashbacks interwoven within Mutta's present-day journey, and they give a lot of insight into the relationship between the two brothers. Both of them were very driven young people, so it will be interesting to see Mutta have to rediscover that side of himself. This story might connect with students who are interested in engineering and space exploration, but the connection might be tenuous since all the characters are adults and not teens as they're probably more accustomed to reading.
