5 Stars“You have me. Until ever last star in the galaxy dies.
You have me.”
Holy shit. Those are the only words I have for this at the moment. It was truly incredible. I loved every moment of it and I completely devoured it.
The format is so strange. It's unlike anything I've read before. It took me a while to get used to it because it is strange to read in that sort of format. I really didn't think I'd be able to get any sort of grasp on the story but I did. It was great and I probably liked it more than I would have just through normal narration.
I usually stray away from sci-fi books because they aren't really my thing or at least I didn't think they were. This was brilliant though, I don't think I can get across how brilliant Illuminae is. It's really opened my eyes to the sci-fi genre and I definitely think I'll stop overlooking it.
I thought I'd have issues connecting with the characters due to the format but I felt so invested in Kady and Ezra. It felt like a really unique experience. Ezra is such a goof, I love him. I really felt as though I got a good sense of them and their relationship.
I am so ridiculously happy with the ending but also slightly nervous. I need to know that everything is going to be okay. I can't wait to get Gemina. It was great, there was a great lead up. Thoroughly enjoyed.
It was really unique. The format was strange but perfect, it really enhanced the experience and was such a different and refreshing approach to storytelling. I really enjoyed it. This is a short review because I just really liked and that's it.
I agree, the format was great. I felt a bit off to, and didn't know if I would get into the story. But, wow!! Great book, great review, thanks :)
