5 stars for [b:Gemina|29236299|Gemina (The Illuminae Files, #2)|Amie Kaufman|https://images.gr-assets.com/books/1480097137s/29236299.jpg|44560442] by [a:Amie Kaufman|5360335|Amie Kaufman|https://images.gr-assets.com/authors/1478659853p2/5360335.jpg]!
“Patience and Silence had one beautiful daughter. And her name was Vengeance.”
― Amie Kaufman, Gemina
Amie and Jay are literal geniuses!!!! The Illuminae Files' distinct and original form, along with it's magnificent and always surprising rollercoaster of a plot, easily makes the series one of my favourites. (So far atleast, I have yet to read Obsidio, but I'm assured I won't be disappointed.)
If you're up for some badass science fiction young adult read with a heck of a lot of plot twists, PICK. UP. THE. FILES. Or if you're not up for that, PICK. THEM. UP. ANYWAY.
Also, did anyone else notice that the endings are such good cliffhangers?! I know I did.

Took a lot of breaks on finishing and am finally done! The plot was surprisingly better than it's predecessor. Probably because it didn't have AI and it's incessant thinking. Not that I hate AIDAN but it got too much at a point, I was quite glad to see it back in the book. But what kept me going were the characters and their weird plans to trick the BT ops. The theories presented actually got me curious and propelled me into completing the book. The ending was a bit meh but I am expecting Obsidio would make up for it.
