5.0

Such a beautifully written book, it follows Kady Grant and Ezra Mason through the bombing of their home planet, onto spaceships in the black of the universe. Told in transcripts, emails, and commentary by a certain AI, this book is lovable and emotional, and makes you want to read it again and again.
If you love Sci-fi, or books told in unusual formats (such as letters or instagram posts) then you will love this book! I, for one, loved it, and it had me laughing out loud and crying at the same time.
