"Juno meets Aliens, sort of, in this wacky debut novel...An extremely clever premise that is skillfully carried off by the authors." --VOYA on Mothership
"Fans of science fiction and zany comedy should both be
satisfied. Pure fun." --Kirkus on Mothership "The
fast-paced action, laugh-out-loud moments, and memorable characters
[are a] a whole lot of fun." --Publishers Weekly on
Mothership "This action-packed first volume in the
Ever-Expanding Universe series drips with sci-fi kitsch, including
ray-gun-toting aliens and 1980s John Hughes nostalgia. There's
something refreshing about these witty, cursing, sarcastic teen
mothers in space, led by a sharp, knowledgeable, and vulnerable
young heroine." --Booklist on Mothership " This
futuristic romp will delight readers and leave them anxiously
awaiting the next book in what promises to be a fun, thoughtful
trilogy." --BookPage on Mothership
The irreverent humor and earthy language make this work of science
fiction a comic treat .--VOYA, on A Stranger Thing
Who knew science fiction about unwed motherhood could be so very
hysterical?--Kirkus Reviews, on A Stranger Thing
