In honor of lluminae by Amie Kaufman and Jay Kristoff (which was released on Tuesday!), I thought it would be fun to share some of my reactions while reading the book. I was cleaning out some notes on my phone recently and found some quick notes I took while reading the book, so I thought I'd share. No spoilers though, I promise! Oh and I'm going to add some GIFs too, because why not? :D
Page 50 - so so so so good this is absolutely brilliant I can't even asdfghjkl;

This pretty much sums up the feels!
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you agree! :)
Delete*cries* I feel so sad and left out on this one - everyone loves it and I just wasn't feeling it. The whole "story told in documents" thing just wasn't for me. I don't usually like epistolary fiction but wanted to try this!

Awww that's too bad! But don't feel bad that you don't feel the same way! You're entitled to your own opinion and I know a few people who thought it wasn't the greatest thing since sliced bread :)
