Chronicle Supposing Books 172 Hours on the Moon

This is the dumbest book I've read this year. Granted, we're only a few days into 2016, but the fact remains that this book is awful. Here are the reasons why: 1. Everyone says OMG THIS BOOK IS SO SCARY. It was not. It was boring. 50% of the book is spent introducing us to the bratty and annoying Mia, the token Japanese girl (she's Japanese so she can tell scary Japanese stories), and the spectacularly unmemorable Mia 2. It was boring. Seriously. You could skip to the last 15% of the book and know what you need to know 3. Zero character development. Completely needless moment of romance where Mia and Antoine know each other for all of a few pages and all of a sudden kisses. Like what? Why? Where did that come from? 4. It was boring. In case I haven't made that quite clear 5. It was hilariously, spectacularly, hysterically unbelievable. Let me talk to you for a moment about willing suspension of disbelief. It is a tool passively exercised by the reader to believe what we read in a book is within the realm of possibility. Vampires exist, you say? So it shall me. In order for willing suspension of disbelief to happen, there has to be an iota of credibility, some tiny fragment that makes our mind say "this could be true, there's a slight chance this might happen." It sets up for the enjoyment of a book. That's what powers the imagination, the spark of possibility. As for this book, my book reaction is: BWAHAAHHAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA LOLOLOL ARE YOU FUCKING SHITTING ME? Because there is no way in hell anything in this book is believable. The premise: NASA runs out of funding, so they decided to hold a publicity event to send some random ass 14-18 years old to the moon. WHAT?! WHAT THE FUCK?! In what universe is that even remotely possible?! It takes astronauts years and years of training, advanced degrees, physical and mental tests have to be passed in order to get chosen for a mission. And they're selecting KIDS and sending them up there with little to no training at all?! Throw in three kids and have them talk to each other when they're all from different countries?! Completely absurd. I can't for a single moment forget how dumb this premise is. It is the book's responsibility to make me feel like what happens is a possibility, and this book did not do that. Plus, it was so boring, guys.

This book was literally insane. It was strictly a horror novel. I don't usually get so unsettled by any type of "horror" novel, but this book scared the shit out of me. (I also read basically all of this book around 1 AM so that probably contributed to the fact that it freaked me out.)Anyway, the first 100 pages or so weren't the most interesting. I think they were supposed to help us get to know NASA's mission and the characters better but both of those, for me, were severely underdeveloped.

HOLY CRAP. THIS BOOK. I CAN'T.

the mooooooon! in spaaaaaace!!!important distinction: this is not a sci-fi novel,it is a horror novel set in space.and it needs to be said: the premise of this book is bananas. buh.na.nuhs.so, NASA decides to go to the moon again. and to select three teenagers to accompany trained astronauts up there. for publicity. and ostensibly this mission is to get tantalum seventy-three from the moon, but really, REALLY - it is because some fucked-up shit happened there that was all covered up, and they

SAY WHAT???Really. That was my exact reaction when i finished the book. It is creepy to say the least. It scared the hibbie jibbies out of me and i truly and madly was convinced for a moment that the Moon might actually be hell.I am glad i read the book because i learned a couple of new things ( like where the phrase "Houston, we have a problem" originated from. yeah because that is totally important for me to suceed in life .) The premise is effing great which is what made me pick up the book

You must know that what I'm about to tell you now is top secret, sensitive information. It's important that you understand that.This is one of the worst books I've ever read. I could have put all the ridiculous quotes here to prove it, but it'd be no fun. So let me explain.**This review contains mild spoilers. All the major spoilers about the ending are hidden.NASA is running out of money and decides to attract world's attention in an unusual way: it holds a lottery among teens that allow them

Read my full review on Lauren Reads YA (with GIFs and pretty book photography!)Imagine if a horror book and a science fiction book made a book baby 172 Hours on the Moon is that baby.All I knew about this book before going in was that it was creepy, and Im so glad I didnt know any more. That made the twists even more exciting! The first half of the book I was thinking of all kinds of crazy (conspiracy) theories, and once you find out what the twist is, youre like, "WHAT?!"The only thing that
