I'm scratching my head, wondering why I gave this 4 stars the first time around? This was incredible!
I am still completely in love with the mixed-media formatting of this series: it kept me engaged, and intrigued with the turn of every page. Although I enjoyed Kady and Ezra more in Illuminae, Hanna and Nik were still very fun to read from (and their tension? *chef's kiss*) Ella was a great character as well, as were our villains Falk and Rapier! I can't wait to see how this series ends!
