If the sealed-door tension of This Splintered Silence—with Lindley holding a fragile station together after the virus—kept you glued to the page, you’ll love Romy’s isolated fight to stay sane and alive aboard a lone starship in The Loneliest Girl in the Universe. It delivers the same closed-environment dread, creeping suspicion via long-distance messages, and a twisty revelation that forces you to question every comforting assumption.
You enjoyed watching Lindley juggle fragile alliances and hidden agendas while protecting her people; The Diabolic turns that pressure-cooker intrigue up to eleven. Nemesis is sent to the galactic court to shield the girl she serves, and she must outmaneuver schemers, survive palace betrayals, and decide what she’s willing to become to keep her world safe—echoing the hard choices and moral lines tested on the station.
If Lindley’s direct, in-the-moment narration—triaging crises, patching failing systems, and thinking three steps ahead—was your hook, The Martian delivers that same intimate, first-person immediacy. Mark Watney’s logbook voice pulls you into ingenious fixes, oxygen-and-power math, and gallows humor as he refuses to die on Mars, mirroring the hands-on, keep-the-life-support-running intensity you loved on the station.
If the rug-pulls in This Splintered Silence—unmasking the truth behind the outbreak and sabotage—were your favorite moments, The Adoration of Jenna Fox offers a similarly disorienting cascade of reveals. As Jenna pieces together who she is and what was done to save her, each answer shifts the moral ground under your feet, echoing the way the station’s revelations force reassessment of every relationship and motive.
If you connected with Lindley stepping into command after tragedy—shouldering responsibility while finding her own voice—Salvage follows Ava as she escapes a restrictive spaceship society and fights to chart her own course. Her resilience, technical savvy, and hard-won leadership will resonate if you loved watching a capable young woman protect her people and redefine what strength looks like in the void.
