Obsidio (The Illuminae Files, #3) in Drop Everything And Read

Mar 14, 2018 Suzzie rated it it was amazing

Epic finale! I loved this series so much! The characters and their dialogue is phenomenal. I will admit to staying up till nearly 3 am on a Tuesday/Wednesday morning to continue reading. It took being told I needed to go to be for me to put it down. Those are the best books, the ones you refuse to put up until a more rational person says, “hey, what are you doing up?

The characterization was as strong as ev ...more
