This review is going to be a long one.
Firstly lets start on how I would rate this book : ALL THE STARS IN THE GALAXY
I'm not the biggest sci-fi reader. I LOVE the Star Wars. Loved it in a sense that I read the comics, I followed everything. I read a lot of dystopian novels but sci-fi? Its still a bit new for me in a sense.
Now, this book. Its MAGNIFICENTLY GOOD. You can't put it down. Imagine watching Star Wars, Star Trek and some form of Avengers movies packed in one book. Not to mention that the whole series is not written in a conversational style of a novel. The personal messages, memos, emails and just everything attached in the book made you feel so close to the characters. The world building, for me was good. If you've already watched at least one Sci-fi movie, you will know to at least imagine how the world would be like for this book.
Character-wise, I loved everyone here! The main antagonists, Hannah and Nik are such a great duo. Another thing that I love about this series is that the authors potrayed such strong female characters and I really like it. One is a hacker, one is strong and just , I can't even fathom how much I love these books! Its fascinating to me.
Anyhow, the plot is well-written and the plot twists that you get makes the book so lovable too! I really encourage you to pick up this series because its AMAZING to a point that you're just fascinated with it. If you're starting to pick up Sc-Fi for the first time, I think the book is a good place to start it. The readings and the diagrams in the book made the world building so much easier.
To all the galaxy and the stars, this book deserves the highest praise, in my humble opinion.
Until then!
