Writers Who Read: Atmosphere - Taylor Jenkins Reid

May's hybrid meeting—IN PERSON at the Boulder Library Main Branch second floor Flatirons Meeting Room & ONLINE (see link when you register)—is Atmosphere by Taylor Jenkins Reid (USA, 2025) on Sunday starting at 2:30 pm (for 2 hours).

Reid writes novels about the “type of woman who I want to talk about, a woman who has naked ambition.” Atmosphere is about Joan, an aspiring astronaut in the early 1980s, desperate to get into space, desperate to be one of the guys, who hides a secret she knows will get her kicked out of NASA's budding space shuttle program. We first meet Joan well into her career as the steadying voice at mission control, attempting to guide the surviving crew of a harrowing spaceflight safely home.

We ask that all attendees read the entire book in advance of the meeting. More information about other Writers Who Read meetings and our WwR Podcast can be found at: https://WritersWhoRead.com
