Do You Dream of Terra-Two? by Temi Oh
4.0
Scifi. Space travel. Teen protagonists.
Story: A potential inhabitable planet has been found. It takes 23 years from Earth to get there. For this reason a team on teenagers have been chosen to fly, so by the time they arrive they will be prime to colonize and lead.
Characters: Jesse has been chosen for the backup team and has to deal with the fact that he almost but didn't make it. Poppy may not have the STEM expertise, but she is ideal to provide all of the media back to Earth. The others are leaders in terms of piloting, engineering, botany and medicine.
Language: Set in an alternate 2012, where England is competing to win the space race and has a large training program. Each chapter is told by a different character and is only a few pages long, creating a great deal of action and tension and suspense.
This book was so thrilling I almost missed my metro stop while reading it. Great for adults as well as teens.
