Este libro me hizo sentir tantas cosas que aún no puedo creer las últimas cosas que pasaron. Me hizo cuestionarme varias cosas, y entrega a una protagonista muy humana, a veces demasiado pero definitivamente se ve un desarrollo en su personaje al final del libro.
Algo que no gustó era la manera de hablar y las comunicaciones de algunos personajes (entiendo que tienen 17-18 años, pero igual) y a veces el mismo formato del libro hace que sea un poco complicado de leer, aunque eso pasará solo en un par de situaciones concretas.
De igual manera me gustó muchísimo.

4.25– A wild ride, and one that was a bit disorienting at first due to its dizzying line up of characters and space ships. Once you get your bearings though, Illuminae becomes an fast-paced, immersive experience that combines the best of sci-fi, zombies, and even adds a touch of romance. Frequently cited as a novel that must be read in its physical format, Illuminae doesn’t disappoint with its illustrations, and innovative text formatting that put the story over the top. Plus, the book adds the icing on the cake with the poetic and philosophical musings of an artificially intelligent spaceship navigation system. *chef’s kiss*

So ... this book?
It is difficult to explain all the feelings and sensations that awakens us!
Question: Do you want to travel in a book? Then accept this with open hands!

The ease and subtlety that the author has in writing the fiction between a romance with the two young couple is incredible. I can assure you two things: the unpredictable and harrowing waits for you!
The density of the characters is to delight, you will gradually discover the weaknesses and strengths of each one, even a machine! Can you believe?! Well, be very sensitive to this reading...
It was the book that I leafed the most in life! I felt like a little detetive behind everything! Beyond this whole history this brings you files and other immensities of documents that help you to fit the pieces of this incredible story!!
By having this book you have a "little world" waiting for you to be unveiled. So go ahead!!!!

Happy readings :)

Unique and interesting concept which made for a quick reading experience. Would have been a 3⭐️ but the ending upped my rating by half a ⭐️.
