"In space, no one can hear you scream."

The premise of 172 Hours on the Moon is that, in the near future, NASA decides to send three teenagers to the moon. Why? For publicity and funding, they say. (Huh, okay.)

Wasn't too sure what to expect when I picked this up, a YA scifi novel. I'm so glad I did. The tension and creepiness crafted into this book is worthy of a 'Grown up' scifi novel. 3 kids win a once in a lifetime chance to go to the moon on the anniversary of the moon landings . Only things don't go to plan. The eeriness in the dark chapters created visions of the horror of Alien, Event Horizon etc. cannot recommend this book enough.

3.5 stars
During the first half of this book I was ready to give it 3 stars, but the second half really surprised me. Some moments were pretty creepy, which I enjoyed.
I feel like some parts, though weren't necessarily rushed, seemed like they happened too quickly. It definitely could have been padded out more by at least another 50 pages. But this did give the book quite a fast pace and nothing dragged on for too long. ...more
