The Gravity of Us
By Phil Stamper
A Choose to Read Ohio selection. Cal wants to be a journalist, and he's already well underway, but his plans are derailed when his pilot father is selected for a highly publicized NASA mission to Mars. With the entire nation desperate for any new information about the astronauts, Cal finds himself thrust into the middle of a media circus. And then Cal meets Leon, whose mother is another astronaut on the mission, and he finds himself falling head over heels—and fast. As their relationship grows, so does the frenzy surrounding the Mars mission, and when secrets are revealed about the ulterior motives of the program, Cal must find a way to get to the truth without hurting the people who have become most important to him.
