YAEver-Expanding Universe series.
Not only does Elvie Nara find herself pregnant with an alien baby, but she is also on an orbiting cruise ship filled with other pregnant teenagers hurtling toward the Earth. Elvie's voice is distinctively sixteen, but her colloquialisms occasionally bog down the narrative. Surprising twists are sprinkled throughout the story, making for an entertaining read overall.
