Seventeen-year-old Alba is an aspiring comic-book artist, pastry enthusiast, and eternal optimist. She thinks life in her tiny town is awesome (if predictable) and she never wants it to change. Unfortunately Alba’s just finished Year 12—so the only thing she can predict is that everything’s going to change. Even so, Alba didn’t see the end of the world coming. Apart from a questionable television psychic, no one did. And for some reason, the world seems to be taking this guy seriously.
As the tiny town is besieged by doomsday enthusiasts, Alba’s life is thrown into chaos. The childhood friend she thought was gone forever unexpectedly reappears; the boy who has been her best friend forever is determined to leave; and even her latest comic book creation, Cinnamon Girl, is out of control. It could be the very last summer of Alba’s life, but impending Armageddon might turn out to be the least of her problems. Alba is about to discover that when it comes to her heart, there may not be infinite time to get things right....

Melissa Keil was born and raised in Melbourne, Australia, and has been a giant book nerd for as long as she can remember. Melissa studied Cinema and Anthropology at uni, and then spent a few more years studiously avoiding getting a real job by dabbling in a bunch of graduate stuff, including Writing and Editing. In between she was a high school teacher, Middle-Eastern tour guide, waitress, community theatre dogs-body, and IT help-desk person (hands down, my most unsuccessful job to date). Now, by day, she is a children’s book editor, and spends most of the rest of her time reading, writing, and watching YouTube. 'Life in Outer Space' is her debut YA novel. It’s a young adult romantic comedy that combines some of her many loves – movies, music, karate, old cinemas, Star Wars, and all things geek.
