"The Loneliest Girl in the Universe is shocking and brutal and has the best twist I've ever read. The sinister realism of Romy's situation is as terrifying as it is gripping, and I was rooting for her from beginning to end."--Alice Oseman, author of Radio Silence

"Loneliest Girl just blew my mind."--John Moore, Waterstones Bookseller

"[James] skillfully, slowly unspools suspense and dread... This slow-burn genre-blender has surprising twists and turns, and patient readers will be rewarded by the explosive ending."--ALA Booklist

[A] stunning twist takes the sci-fi premise into psychological thriller territory...a blur of action in hyperspeed that will leave readers breathless by this end of this satisfying genre mash-up.--Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books

"As a psychological drama, The Loneliest Girl in the Universe is a good read with several shocking twists. It's even sharper as an extended metaphor for certain risky realities of modern adolescence."--Wall Street Journal

"In James's suspenseful and clever debut, the immensely likable Romy conveys her desire for the very human contact that will leave her vulnerable. Shocking revelations pave the way to a harrowing finale."--Publishers Weekly

Rese�a del editor:

Now in paperback, this surprising and gripping sci-fi thriller with a killer twist that Entertainment Weekly called “compulsively unpredictable” will have readers hanging on until its shocking finale.

The daughter of two astronauts, Romy Silvers is no stranger to life in space. But she never knew how isolating the universe could be until her parents’ tragic deaths left her alone on the Infinity, a spaceship speeding away from Earth.

Romy tries to make the best of her lonely situation, but with only brief messages from her therapist on Earth to keep her company, she can’t help but feel like something is missing. It seems like a dream come true when NASA alerts her that another ship, the Eternity, will be joining the Infinity.

Romy begins exchanging messages with J, the captain of the Eternity, and their friendship breathes new life into her world. But as the Eternity gets closer, Romy learns there’s more to J’s mission than she could have imagined. And suddenly, there are worse things than being alone....
