Vaadata öötaevasse tähendab vaadata neid osakesi endast, kes sa kunagi olid, kelleks ühel päeval võid saada. 1980. aasta suvel alustab astrofüüsika professor Joan Goodwin Johnsoni Kosmosekeskuses Houstonis astronaudiväljaõpet koos teiste silmapaistvate kandidaatidega, kelle hulgas on hävitaja piloot Hank Redmon, missioonieksperdid John Griffin ja Lydia Danes, sooja südamega Donna Fitzgerald ja Vanessa Ford, külgetõmbav ja salapärane aeronautikainsener. Kui värsked astronaudid oma esimeseks lennuks valmistuvad, leiab Joan kire ja armastuse, mida poleks iial osanud ette kujutada, ning see paneb teda kahtlema kõiges, mida ta seni pidas oma rolliks nähtavas universumis. Aga 1984. aasta detsembris muutub STS-LR9 missiooni käigus kõik. "Atmosfääris" on Taylor Jenkins Reid oma tippvormis: ta viib lugejad endaga kaasa ajaloolistesse aegadesse ja paikadesse ning jutustab keerukate tegelaskujude kaudu loo armastuse tervendavast jõust - sel korral tähtede keskel. Taylor Jenkins Reid on üheksa New York Timesi menuki autor, nende hulgas "Carrie Soto on tagasi", "Malibu tõuseb tuhast", "Daisy Jones & The Six" ja "Evelyn Hugo seitse abikaasat". Ta elab koos abikaasa ja tütrega Los Angeleses. Vaimustav... südant murdev... meeltülendav... Taylor Jenkins Reidi romaan "Atmosfäär" on tempokas, emotsioonidest laetud lugu ambitsioonikast noorest naisest, kes otsib oma häält ja kirge, lootes saada üheks esimestest NASA naisastronautidest. See elektrist särisev romaan kutsub meid elama nendele naistele kaasa ja lootma, et nad komsoseprogrammis läbi lööksid, aga veelgi enam - teeksid seda särades. Lõpp on täiuslikult komponeeritud... ma jumaldasin seda raamatut! Kristin Hannah NASA? Kosmosemissioonid? 1980ndad? See on romaan kõigest, mida ma armastan... Suurepärane lugu, eeskujulik taustauuring ja täpsus ning vaimustav lõpplahendus. Andy Weir
New York Times bestselling author Taylor Jenkins Reid's acclaimed novels, One True Loves; Maybe in Another Life; Forever, Interrupted; and After I Do are now available together in this delightful boxed set From an author who "writes with wit and true emotion that you can feel" (Sarah Jio, New York Times bestselling author), this collection features four of Taylor Jenkins Reid's most beloved and moving love stories. One True Loves, now a major motion picture, follows a woman who finds herself madly in love once again years after her husband's plane goes missing. But what happens when her husband returns--having spent all those years trying to find his way back to her? Maybe in Another Life explores the power of choice as a woman decides whether to go home after a night out on the town with her friend...or her old high school boyfriend, told in riveting, concurrent storylines. Forever, Interrupted proves that there's more than one way to live happily ever after when a widow meets her mother-in-law for the first time and together, the two women face grief and healing. After I Do follows a couple struggling with their marriage when they decide to take a year apart to fall back in love. The only catch--they can't contact each other. Will they find their way back to one another or is this experiment doomed to fail?

Even if the sports media says that they never liked "the Battle-Axe" anyway. Even if her body doesn't move as fast as it did.

In spite of it all, Carrie Soto is back, for one epic final season. In this riveting and unforgettable novel, Taylor Jenkins Reid tells her most vulnerable, emotional story yet.

But over the course of twenty-four hours, the family drama that ensues will change their lives forever. Malibu: August 1983. It's the day of Nina Riva's annual end-of-summer party, and anticipation is at a fever pitch. Everyone wants to be around the famous Rivas: Nina, the talented surfer and supermodel; brothers Jay and Hud, one a championship surfer, the other a renowned photographer; and their adored baby sister, Kit. Together the siblings are a source of fascination in Malibu and the world over--especially as the offspring of the legendary singer Mick Riva. The only person not looking forward to the party of the year is Nina herself, who never wanted to be the center of attention, and who has also just been very publicly abandoned by her pro tennis player husband. Oh, and maybe Hud--because it is long past time for him to confess something to the brother from whom he's been inseparable since birth. Jay, on the other hand, is counting the minutes until nightfall, when the girl he can't stop thinking about promised she'll be there. And Kit has a couple secrets of her own--including a guest she invited without consulting anyone. By midnight the party will be completely out of control. By morning, the Riva mansion will have gone up in flames. But before that first spark in the early hours before dawn, the alcohol will flow, the music will play, and the loves and secrets that shaped this family's generations will all come rising to the surface. Malibu Rising is a story about one unforgettable night in the life of a family: the night they each have to choose what they will keep from the people who made them . . . and what they will leave behind.
