This was REALLY fun to read. I loved all the documents to make up the story, and the interior design made the whole experience so much more complete and unique. Serious kudos to the designers, here. This book made me feel like I was watching a movie like Star Wars, it was so exciting and fast paced and interesting that it was hard to put down because it felt like putting a chase scene on pause, or like using the emergency brake on the highway. I thought it was funny, scary, creepy, and ridiculous. I loved the love story and the pictures Ezra drew for her. I liked how when describing the book to someone, I'd start, "The two main characters break up and then their planet blows up." This was really quite fun.
