I heard her interviewed on the Living Writers podcast and was struck by her memories of the Challenger exploding - she was born the same year I was, so they were similar memories. But she takes it deeper into the company town atmosphere surrounding NASA in the 80's and a nice "coming of age" story to parallel it, much more interesting than most "coa" stories I've read. Worth checking out.
