Have you ever wondered what it would be like to find yourself strapped to a giant rocket that’s about to go from zero to 17,500 miles per hour? Or to look back on the earth from outer space and see the surprisingly precise line between day and night? Or to stand in front of the Hubble telescope, wondering if the emergency repair you’re about to make will inadvertently ruin humankind’s chance to unlock the universe’s secrets? Mike Massimino has been there, and in Spaceman he puts you inside the suit, with all the zip and buoyancy of life in microgravity.

Its important to say that I didn’t know anything about this book before getting into it. So I didn’t have any expectations for this book.

This book is surprisingly very Inspiring and relatable which really made give this book some extra points because of this. 

I personally feel like that the beginning was a little bit boring because the beginning is about the author and about why he wanted to become a astronaut, the test he failed the first time to become astronaut and then what he did after he failed the test. Which I personally found to be more on the boring side because I want to read about astronauts not a guy who failed his astronaut test.

The writing style her is okay, but it is far from being good. But at the same thing the writing style makes everything more understandable and easy. So its not all bad even thou I didn’t like the writing style so much in this book.

The moment where the author actually gets into the program the books starts to get interesting because then we actually follow the journey of what it takes once you are in the space program.

I personally feel like there are some part of this book which should have been removed from the final version since they didn’t bring anything to the table and were only boring for me at least.

I Give This Book 3 / 5
