I finally got to read Memento! A momentous occasion indeed. I've been a massive fan of the Illuminae Files for years and I thought that I would have to sell my soul to read this novella that was released during the preorder campaign of Obsidio. I was so happy when it was announced that Memento would be released and I preordered it straight away. I was in a reading slump when it was published but I finally got around to reading it! I read it in one sitting and it made me really miss the series. I am planning on rereading the series soon because it is one of my favourite series of all time. It made me want to read more from this series. It also made me more interested in the Aurora Rising series. This novella brought up a lot of good memories that I had from this series.
The novella starts before Illuminae and follows Private 1st Class Olivia Kline on the United Terran Authority Battleship Alexander-78V. Her mission is working on the AI called AIDAN and it's behavioural algorithms. You see AIDAN before it is damaged and how it evolves into the entity we meet in Illuminae.
I would highly recommend this novella to the fans of the series. You even get to see a cameo from Ezra Mason! This novella reminded me why I loved this series so much and I can't wait to reread it to feel all those emotions again.

This book was fine but not really needed in the series.

Now I understand how you acted all these books ago.
Though you did make this character cry a lot.
Is it wrong to admit that I want a book series just with AIDAN?

Short but sweet, I can't help but devour anything with AIDAN in it. Backstory to his error? I'm here for it!! Despite the novella length, I still managed to get attached to the characters and my heart pounding. Love this series so much!
