The book of the month pick for March is a doozy. This month's selection is Illuminae by Amie Kaufman and Jay Kristoff.

Illuminae is book one in the thrilling Illuminae Files Trilogy. I am exited and intrigued about the possibilities of what will be unearthed within the pages of this much talked about series.

Based on the synopsis and buzz around the series, the authors have crafted a very unique storytelling style...immersing the reader into a riveting dystopian sci-fi adventure.



I cannot wait to begin.


As always...happy reading!



Synopsis:

This morning, Kady thought breaking up with Ezra was the hardest thing she’d have to do. This afternoon, her planet was invaded.

The year is 2575, and two rival megacorporations are at war over a planet that’s little more than a speck at the edge of the universe. Now with enemy fire raining down on them, Kady and Ezra—who are barely even talking to each other—are forced to evacuate with a hostile warship in hot pursuit.

But their problems are just getting started. A plague has broken out and is mutating with terrifying results; the fleet’s AI may actually be their enemy; and nobody in charge will say what’s really going on. As Kady hacks into a web of data to find the truth, it’s clear the only person who can help her is the ex-boyfriend she swore she’d never speak to again.

Told through a fascinating dossier of hacked documents—including emails, maps, files, IMs, medical reports, interviews, and more—Illuminae is the first book in a heart-stopping trilogy about lives interrupted, the price of truth, and the courage of everyday heroes.
