I usually hate “split stories” or when the main character has sort of flashbacks and such. But I actually find mussels enjoying them in this. Swing the build up from the beginning to where he is now, but still not knowing what leads him to be on the mission is intriguing! Also, ROCKY. YOU MUST SURVIVE. DONT QUIT ON ME. Just when I was thinking everything was fine, the script flipped and caught me off guard!

It truly has become a friendship between the two and it’s honestly a genuine fascination with one another since they are completely opposite. And again, I feel like this isn’t just your typical “alien” story. It actually has some depth and interaction and keeps the reader entertained.

I love the relationship between Rocky and Ryland! It’s so funny and heart warming and cool! It’s making me love this book and I feel like it’s a completely different perspective on “aliens” than what’s in the norm and I like that!!

As I stated, this book is actually quite funnier than expected but not only that, you almost get just as excited as Ryland does. And the whole language barrier between Rocky and Ryland, that was such a cool way of going about it! I honestly can’t help but love this book and I’m always curious what is going to happen next because so far, it is nothing that I have expected!

It seems a bit fast paced, but in a good way. I find it still sprinkled with little bits of humor that counters the scientific ideas, problems, and situations presented in the book. I am truly needing and geeking out over this book and am afraid I might finish it faster than anticipated!

Yea, I think I’m hooked. I just can’t get enough of this book!! And now that all the pieces of the story are starting to come together, I just am loving it!!

Man this is good, I am absolutely loving it! Not like any alien story I have heard of. Quite intriguing and is making me not want to put it down!

It’s actually got quite a bit of good humor in it! It’s still very intriguing and the introduction of extraterrestrial existence and Rylands involvement happens quite soon, only 40 pages into the book! I’m quite enjoying it and the science behind it!

I’m quite intrigued, after seeing the trailer come out for the movie (trying to finish this before the movie) it is nothing that I would’ve expected. Finding out that we know nothing of the main character and that we are learning about him at the same time that he is learning about himself is a cool take on the story! It makes me feel more connected to him and that I’m along with him learning at the same rate.
