| WATTPAD EDITOR'S CHOICE | Major Aula Reed is a Canadian fighter pilot, veteran astronaut, and closeted bisexual. She's stationed on the second International Lunar Base or ILUB-2 with seven other crewmates. To be separated from Earth means facing radiation, meteorites, and equipment failure while under constant public scrutiny. For Aula, it also means struggling with memories of ILUB-1: the worst disaster in space exploration since the shuttle era. While she tries not to let her first mission overshadow her second, the Moon is an unforgiving place. It only takes one mistake, no matter how small, for history to repeat itself. This is a story of the near future informed by the lives of today's astronauts, whose triumphs and tragedies are immortalized in the public eye.

Emily used to someone. A sister. A daughter. A girlfriend. A friend. Then her mother was murdered - and everything went quiet. Now she is unraveling under the weight of grief she can't name. Her sister Amy is holding it together - barely. But pretending to be okay doesn't stop you from drowning. Told through alternating POVS, The Quiet Between Us is a haunting teen fiction about sisterhood, love, trauma and the fragile hope of healing. Because sometimes, the loudest cries are the ones no one hears.
