Review #22 - Gemina by Jay Kristoff and Amie Kaufman




Details:

Title: 
Gemina
Author: Amie Kaufman and Jay Kristoff
Publisher: Rock the Boat
ISBN 13: 978-1780749815

Synopsis:

Hanna Donnelly is the station captain’s pampered daughter and Nik Malikov is the reluctant member of a notorious crime family. Together they struggle with the realities of life aboard the galaxy’s most boring space station, blissfully unaware that Kady Grant and the Hypatia are headed right toward Heimdall with news of the Kerenza invasion
Review:


As with Illuminae this book was made up of transcripts, reports of camera footage and emails. It is such a fun unique way to tell a story and although I believed otherwise before reading, you don't lose anything by not having a constant narrative from the main characters. In fact it adds a kind of tension to the story by not knowing what people are thinking or going to do. 

This book upped the anti a lot and got more involved with some science techy talk but not so much that you got lost which was very good. I am very much looking forward to the next and final book in this trilogy.

Like Illuminae I gave this book 4 out of 5 stars.
