Grade 11
When Dashiell Gibson woke up on lunar day 217, year 2041, he did not expect his base commander to go missing. You see, he was one of the first people on the moon, and his commander was responsible for everybody. So when she went missing, chaos broke out.
It all started on the previous day, when Dash got in trouble by Patton Sjoberg for sucking his face with a toilet hose. However, this wasn't without reason. Dash was just showing his alien friend, who wasn't actually there, Star Wars, when Patton and his sister, Lily, burst in looking for Dash's friend, Roddy. Dash told them that he didn't know where he was, but they didn't believe him and started chasing him around the base. They eventually ended up in the restroom, where the incident happened. Patton told Nina, the
base commander, about what happened, so she called Dash to her room. But while she was talking to him, she received a mysterious text, and the next day she disappeared. He and his friend Kira went up to her room (against the rules), and found something that surprised them.
The author did a very good job in general on this book. He described the characters in great detail over time. For example, he shows how Kira "had a thing about entering places that were supposed to be off-limits." The plot was also very good and keeps you turning the pages until the very end. There were many plot twisters and made me feel like reading more to see what would happen.
All in all, I would recommend Spaced Out to anyone who likes a good mystery or sci-fi. The author's style was very easy to follow and keeps you on the edge of your seat to see what would happen next. It was very good partly because of the action and partly because of the mystery. If you decide to read this, get ready to go on an exciting journey!
