These broken stars




These Broken Stars by Amie Kaufman and Meagan Spooner
Josh's rating: ★★★★★

An enormous spaceliner is yanked out of hyperspace, sending thousands to their doom.  Out of the multitudes aboard, there are only two survivors:  Lilac LaRoux, the richest lady in the world, and Major Merendsen, a heroic young soldier.  Can they forget about social boundaries and learn to work together, or will they die, lost somewhere in the galaxy?

This book was interesting to the last page!  I especially enjoyed the conflict between Lilac's feelings toward Tarver and her sense of obligation towards her father and society.  These Broken Stars is a true thriller, a fantastic work of art from the distant future.
