I ABSOLUTELY LOVE THIS BOOK AND THIS SERIES!!!!!!!

If you read this series you HAVE to listen to the audiobook and follow along in the book.

I feel seen. Ask anyone who knows me and they will tell you I AM ELLA MALIKOVA! Oh my God it was like seeing my personality in action (except the computer hacker I'm not that great with electronics). We are both sassy AF and every other word we say is a cuss word (I'm not kidding)

my favorite pages (besides the humor and anything with Nik, Ella, and Hanna) are the ones that are just a swirling series of sentences describing what happening and you have to spin the boo around to read. It makes it interactive.

This book was scaring me (when certain things were happening) had me gasping, and had me so just AHH. I fell in love with the characters so hard I love how the romance is apart of the story but doesn't take over what's happening and what the characters are going through. I was confused by the big plot twist about Nik and the wormhole (not going into cause of spoilers) I had to reread it a few times but I finally understood it when (funny enough) AIDEN explained it. 

The humor whenever Ella or Nik speak and whenever Nik, Hanna, and Ella talk is so funny I get weird looks from whoever is around me when I'm reading cause I will legit laugh at my book. The last 50 pages had me going WHAT THA FUCK!!! I was in fierce denial. I didn't like Jackson from the beginning but the last 50 pages ruined me and made me HATE him. Then we find out the truth and I had a teeny tony bit of respect for him.

ADIAN cursing is the funniest thing. I had ADIAN in the first book, but I'm beginning to really like ADIAN. The way he cares about the people on the ship and those he's working with it almost as if ADIAN is human.
