“Everything went so smoothly that we soon forgot to be nervous. When the turkey was done, we took it out, set it on the back of the range to keep warm and put the mince pies in… everything was going as merrily as a marriage bell. Then, all at once, things happened.”

Across the Universe follows Amy, who‘s awakened from cryosleep fifty years early aboard the ship Godspeed. She connects with Elder, next in line to lead the ship‘s society, and together they uncover who‘s targeting the other frozen passengers—and the lies running the ship. It starts a bit slow but ramps up fast, and I‘m excited it‘s only the first in a trilogy!

I remember reading this book years ago, and the original cover with the red mittens and the snow just stuck in my head!
