Starflight by Melissa Landers
4.0

Ahoy there me mateys!

This was a fun little space romp with romance. I loved the main character of Solara. The love interest, Doran, was the perfect jerk guy who comes around to be not so bad. The eccentric crew is fun. The ship’s mascot rocks. The plot did not lead me to deep pondering or philosophical thinking but it was entertaining. The whole crew is full of banter and snarkiness that was right up my alley. And there are space pirates (Arrrrr!). Basically there is one major disaster after the other. I thought the ending’s plot twist was a little strange but I thought “Fluff book. Go with it.” The world building was light, the actual science was light, and it is cheesy. If you just want quick fast entertainment with silliness then this book might be for you.

Side Note: There is going to be a companion novel, starfall, that I will pick up when it eventually comes out.
