henrietta_h 's review for:
Illuminae
by Jay Kristoff, Amie Kaufman
I want to give this book 6 stars because it is one of the bests that I've ever read!
I started to read this accidentally, I didn't know which book to choose from my ebooks and opened it by chance and I decided that it must be fate. So I read on.
I'm so glad that I opened it. I loved every single page. The writing style hooked me from the first few paragraphs and I was so excited about it that I stayed up all night to finish it. I couldn't just put it away because it was impossible for me not to find out what will happen whit the spaceships and the characters.
I have to say I'm rather picky about characters, but here I loved each and one of them. I felt compassion even towards AIDAN, and at the end I couldn't decide if he was evil or not.
The best parts for me though were the Surveillance Camera Footage parts. I laughed so much at those, it was so funny how the narrator wanted to keep it professional but actually he was as excited as the reader. Let me give you an example:
"Stuck in the corridor, he's completely f...ed (oh, I'm sorry, "at a serious tactical disadvantage") if any visitors come calling."
At last it was a great read, I have to say that it's one of the books that I truly, whole-heartedly enjoyed, I had good laughs, and real tears for the loss of some characters, and I dare to say that it's the best sci-fi of this year.
