But when Cal’s journalist’s nose smells something sinister brewing behind the scenes of the mission, the truth will not come without a price. Overwhelmed by the three-ring media circus surrounding the mission, as well as the increasing tension between his parents, Cal finds respite in his time spent with Leon, and their relationship swiftly blossoms into a romance. Cal, an aspiring journalist and rising social media star, is loath to leave Brooklyn when his pilot father gets the news, but finds Houston, too, has its charms-chief among them being Leon, whose mother has also been chosen for the team. Phil Stamper makes his much-anticipated debut with The Gravity of Us, a young adult novel following two teenage boys as their lives are uprooted and dropped in Houston, Texas, when their parents are selected to join a mission to Mars. This sweet, witty love story will put stars in your eyes as two teens find solace in one another within a maelstrom of activity and intrigue surrounding a NASA mission to Mars.
