Personal Ratings: ALL THE STARS IN THE GALAXY
**Takes Long Deep Breaths**
This book. This series. Everything. Just everything made it so perfect.
Let's talk about the book first.
I am not an avid Sci-Fi reader. I prefer watching than reading them. However, this book really changed my perspective on the genre.
I loved the characters. In this book, the characters shows their growth and strengths that made them so much more lovable. How does one love a character with just Personal Messages and mixes of video analysis you might presume? Well, the characters were written in such a way that you feel as though you can relate to them and that you want them to have the happiest of all endings.
This book especially rendered me speechless. The book is not perfect, but it gave the best closure for the series. It broke me towards the end, but really, what must done should be done and that was what the authors were trying to state in the book.
The plot
I love how the plot goes from the first book to the last and it doesn't feel rushed. It felt immaculate like the authors had thought through everything and the plot made sense. Whilst I was reading it, I totally felt like I was running along with the characters, going through the fighting scenes, and just them trying to survive. It was intense, it was nerve-wracking and it broke my heart at certain parts of the book. It was truly a journey going from the first book to this one and the whole series is a big 100 for me.
Should you pick it up?
A definite YES.
As I said, I am not in any way an avid sci-fi reader, but I'm starting to really warm up in this genre. Loving Star Wars helped me with the world-building and the reading style was something new and I didn't hate it at all. In fact, it was a whole new experience for me. I was skeptical to pick up this series at first, but, I didn't regret taking that leap of faith.
