Illuminae by Amie Kaufman & Jay Kristoff Book Summary

For fans of Marie Lu comes the first book in an epic series that bends the sci-fi genre into a new dimension.
 
 “A truly beautiful novel that redefines the form." —Victoria Aveyard, bestselling author of Red Queen

This morning, Kady thought breaking up with Ezra was the hardest thing she’d have to do. This afternoon, her planet was invaded.
      The year is 2575, and two rival megacorporations are at war over a planet that’s little more than a speck at the edge of the universe. Now with enemy fire raining down on them, Kady and Ezra—who are barely even talking to each other—are forced to evacuate with a hostile warship in hot pursuit.
     But their problems are just getting started. A plague has broken out and is mutating with terrifying results; the fleet’s AI may actually be their enemy; and nobody in charge will say what’s really going on. As Kady hacks into a web of data to find the truth, it’s clear the only person who can help her is the ex-boyfriend she swore she’d never speak to again.
      Told through a fascinating dossier of hacked documents—including emails, maps, files, IMs, medical reports, interviews, and more—Illuminae is the first book in a heart-stopping trilogy about lives interrupted, the price of truth, and the courage of everyday heroes.

Amazing. I love these types of books and this one was just really good!

So. Much. Fun.. I loved loved loved this book! For anyone that is nervous about how it's written(basically transcripts of convos, video files, memos)... DON'T BE! It flows so smoothly and I couldn't put it down. It was such a fun way to read. I don't read much sci-fi so this book was a little out of my comfort zone... And now it's opened up a whole new genre to me. It felt so real!

Illuminae. It such a great read!!!!!

Amazing book. Read it NOW.. I was skeptical of this book at first, do too it's unusual format. But, ultimately, I got used to it (and it started to FLY by) and was easily one of the best books I've had the pleasure of reading. It kept me on my toes for the duration of the novel. I definitely recommend reading this gem of a book!

This is my favorite book!. It has everything. Romance, sci-fi, war, even zombies!

Love it!!!. I love everything about this book. It has a unique format, the story is told through email, interviews, and video reports. The characters are amazing. It is well written. Kaufman & Kristoff have done an amazing job!!!

Amazing Audiobook!. Wow.... this audiobook was amazing! I listened to the audio and followed along with the book and this is literally the best audiobook I’ve ever read. I felt like I was watching a movie. The story was so much more emotional than I thought it would be. I was invested the entire time. It was action packed and even had a romance which I loved. I didn’t read the blurb so the sickness really caught me off guard. While listening to the audiobook I was a little creeped out. It was an experience. I loved the mixed media format of the book. It helped me visualize what was happening. And the full cast audiobook was *chefs kiss* perfection. This honestly may be one of my favorite books this year. I’m so glad I finally decided to read this book.

The best thing. I love this book so much, between its presentation, format, and the actual story, I can’t stop reading. It has interesting characters and the most ironic of humor. I 100% suggest this book, even if you aren’t a science fiction kind of person—I know I’m not.

Favorite Series of all Time. :)

W.O.W. Amazing. Absolutely mind stunningly beautiful. The book tells the awesome story of a futuristic ship, trying to runaway from the Lincoln, a huge attack warship from a company, not wanting them to spread the word about how they attacked the planet. The interesting thing is, the story is told through files and chat records and, it's much more interesting then a regular book. The story quickly escalates and you feel your heart beating and the suspense growing. No spoilers though!

Absolutely wonderful book. I haven't read in a long time, but this is a fantastic book. It's not told in an orthodox manner either, it has dossiers and whatnot that you read through chronologically..very interesting book.

Fast paced with twists!. I loved jumping right into the action , I couldn’t put it down, so many twists and just such a unique perspective for story telling. Ready for number two!

An amazing book!. I was blown away by this book. Amazing. Brilliant. Such innovative story telling...Illuminae is one of the best books I’ve read.

Hold on to you pants, this is a bumpy ride. What. A. Book. It's an absolute roller coaster of a read. Incredibly fast-past. Deliciously creepy. Wonderfully bizarre, complete with one of the best senses of black humour I've read in fiction to date. The authors are really breaking boundaries with this debut. Their unique styles mixed with their amazing storytelling makes a story that utterly sucks you in. WARNING! This book is not for the faint of heart. Do not read if any of these things make you feel uncomfortable: Pathogens Being Lost in space Insane AIs Super duper creepy children Hacking Death Looooots of people being shot Oh, and my all time favorite... A bunch of innocent people being skinned and having their bodies arranged into terrifying messages! (seriously though. If you are 12, don't read this book. Your sleep cycle will thank you) This is such an amazing book. Read it immediately. You will be grateful.

Illuminae Group. Okay, seriously this book is now officially on my "favourite list of wonder, amazing books!" I just enjoyed it and it took me to another world! To 2575 of course ;) this book made me cry, smile, get mad and weird and rarely jealous :')! Just perfect, can not wait for Gemina... That's how you spelling it right? :P P. S Definitely a MUST READ. - K. Michelle
