The Darkness Outside Us

plumpaperbacks shared a tip "This was phenomenal!!! Not the cute space gays story I was expecting, but an intense space thriller that I never knew what to expect from. I adore Ambrose and Kodiak, and I can’t recommend this enough!!! Prepare for your mind to be BLOWN. Mine was."

dreameroftheday shared a tip "😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 this book was heartbreaking, and beautiful, and lonely, and sweet, and longing, and extremely intense, and hopeful. It was exactly what I wanted it to be and way, way more. And it saved me from a reading slump! Everyone go read it so it can become a movie someday!! (Pro tip: listen to the Interstellar soundtrack while you’re reading it for extra heartache and hope 🥲👌)"

drake_harbolt shared a tip "Absolutely obsessed. This book is incredible and has reignited my love for reading as I couldn’t put it down. Definitely a page turner.

ava_mcdonald_8722 shared a tip "It’s amazing. Even though the synopsis isn’t correct about the actual plot itself, it’s a really good book. I recommend it to anyone whose a fan of scfi/psychological/ thriller/ romance. Made me cry and I wasn’t expecting to cry but I did...so loved that. But yeah overall great beautiful book. Also wouldn’t say this is a YA. More of an adult fiction which once again, loved."

ryan_melon_ shared a tip "So heart wrenching and emotional. I couldn’t put this thing down and it’s one of my favorite mlm books ever. READ IT READ IT READ IT"

his_little_princess shared a tip "Once i started reading i couldn't stop. Not the cute gay love story i was expecting but im definitely not mad at it. Really made me think and cry and think some more."

gillian_white_3224 shared a tip "Seriously mis-advertised, this is a psychological thriller in space that asks questions about what it means to exist while also having a sweet lgbt romance. Expect shades of 2001: A Space Odessey and Moon."

brady_williams shared a tip "I was skeptical to read this but I have never been more wrong in my life. It’s intense and exciting but you still get that romance that absolutely will melt your heart. I still have chills and I finished it hours ago. Please pick this up."

daydreamers-daze shared a tip "I couldn't put the book done and I really like that their romance wasn't the main focus for this story. It's definitely a good psychological thriller that left me reading for hours"

cristov_russell shared a tip "This was quite the ride. It has a cruel brilliant sharp edge. There is a very human story here wrapped in a scifi setting. The setting challenges the protagonists in ways that you as a reader will are forced to think about how advances in society will shape our morality in the future."
