About The Weight of the Stars by K. Ancrum

Ryann Bird dreams of traveling among the stars, but her circumstances lead her to give up on that ambition. When she meets Alexandria, a furious loner whose mother volunteered for a one-way space mission, Ryann discovers that Alexandria waits each night for radio signals from her mother.

Set in a contemporary young adult world and shaped by science-fiction elements, the story follows Ryann and Alexandria as repeated nights spent listening for a signal bring them from reluctant companionship toward friendship and romance. It may appeal to readers looking for queer YA fiction, a slow-building relationship, and a story that connects personal hopes with space exploration.
