Title: Illuminae
Author: Amie Kaufman & Jay Kristoff
Rating: 4 out of 5 stars
Praises: I am absolutely in LOVE with this book! I plan to read it on repeat until I get the second book in the series. There were so many unexpected turns in the book, and it kept you on the edge of your seat the entire time. I loved the way it was written, and although it made it slightly hard to understand for the first 100 pages, you get used to the way it is told, and start to really enjoy it. I loved the ending, and loved the emotional roller coaster I was taken on throughout the last 200 pages.
Criticisms: Not really any. The only reason I took a star off was for the 100 pages of having to get used to a completely different reading experience. I wish I could have given it 5 stars, but the beginning wasn’t the easiest to read. However, reading it a second time, I would absolutely rate it 5 stars since I’d be used to the writing style by then.
