A vivid, evocative YA lesbian romance about how the universe is full of second chances

Ryann Bird dreams of traveling across the stars. But a career in space isn't an option for a girl who lives in a trailer park on the "wrong" side of town. So Ryann becomes her circumstances and settles for acting out and skipping school to hang out with her delinquent friends.

One day she meets Alexandria: a furious loner who spurns Ryann's offer of friendship. After a horrific accident leaves Alexandria with a broken arm, the girls are brought together despite themselves--and Ryann learns her secret: Alexandria's mother is an astronaut who volunteered for a one-way trip to the edge of the solar system.

Every night without fail, Alexandria waits to catch radio signals from her mother. And now it's up to Ryann to lift her onto the roof day after day until the silence between them grows into friendship, and eventually something more.

The Weight of the Stars is the new LGBT young adult romance from K. Ancrum, written with the same style of short, micro-fiction chapters and immediacy that garnered acclaim for her debut, The Wicker King.

An Imprint Book

"The Weight of the Stars is one of the most gentle, gracious, and, overall, kind books that I've read all year ... It's a YA romance about girls and stars and friendship and mercy and loss and regret and what we owe each other and what we give away to lift each other up ... This book is starlight on broken concrete, it's flowers on a broken rooftop, and it's a masterpiece." --Seanan McGuire, New York Times bestselling author of Every Heart a Doorway

"Touches on sexual identity, friendship, nontraditional families, and the price of human space exploration. The characters' resilience and vulnerability are deftly handled ... For readers who are drawn to the unconventional, this will be a satisfying read." --Kirkus Reviews

Fabrics Great, Size a little Big, Overall Pretty Good
Size: Medium, Color: Dark Navy
This suit was truly great, the size for the pants and the vest were pretty on point, maybe a little long for the pants. The jacket was way too big though compared to the rest. Overall pretty good suit for the price, very surprised at the build quality and faabrics.

Bargain Price, but GREAT!!
Color: Black, Size: Large, Color: Black, Size: Large
Bargain price ....but, it looks great, fits very well, very comfortable and received many compliments! Was shocked that a ~$75 tuxedo was this great. The pants had substantial adjustment in the waist so they fit really well. The length was spot on. I'm 5'11 and 165 pounds and the large was a great fit for me. Highly recommend for anyone needing a tuxedo! The pants do not have a stripe on the side, if that's important to you, it wasn't to me.

Fit and quality
Color: Navy Blue, Size: Small
Very nice suits. Good quality and size is pretty spot on as long as you take measurements. I have bought this brand in two different colors for my son's high-school proms. Both suits held up well and were a good fit. He is tall and skinny. 6 ft and 135 lbs. Wears a 28/34 jeans lol. The small pants fit better for his waist and small jacket fit but he preffered the little closer fit of the medium size jacket. Overall very happy with purchase and would recommend for anyone looking for a cheap suit for a wedding or prom. Its affordable and they have many color options.

Profesionally Fit and Tailored outfit
Color: Black, Size: Large
Pretty professional and great outlook wearing it with a tie. Can be used in any environment but not in a warmth area with a Jacket. Feels pretty comfortable. Material was great indeed and pretty silky from the inside.

pretty good for the price
Color: Brilliant Black, Size: Large
pretty darn good for the price. You can tell its cheap when you feel it and look close but its really not bad. Surprisingly it fit very well. (for reference Im 6' 1.5" 180 pounds and everything fit me good, except the pants that were a little baggy and the vest a little short) but for the price its good. Its nice enough you can wear it out and not feel like your wearing a Halloween costume or something.
