Under the theme of Space, you all voted for Illuminae (The Illuminae Files, #1) by Amie Kaufman by Amie Kaufman to be May's Book of the Month.
I've heard nothing but exceptionally positive reviews for this book/series and I'm extremely excited to start this in May. If like me, you haven't read it, grab a copy so we can get into discovering what everyone is talking about when it comes to this book. If you have read it, by all means, join in on the discussion.

I hope I do too.


Jenny (juliababyjen) | 1075 comments This book is so good, I hope everyone enjoys the read!


Farren (mmmcookies) I'll probably be the only negative reviewer you see then, because I didn't care for the story. I DNF'd it the first time I tried to read it, then I listened to the audiobook some time later just so I could force myself to finish it. It had a full cast and sounded like a movie, but I just couldn't get behind the plot.


Tracy | 7239 comments Mod
You won't be the only one who won't like it Farren. I find that our BOM's are always mixed.


Laura  (llbasaldua) | 790 comments Oh good Im looking forward to this and the next book !!

I've seen many people obsess about the second book. I will just need to see for myself.

Lara | 18 comments I read this last month. If you enjoyed the authors' previous series, you should really like this one. I thought it was tighter, but had a similar feel.

I've had hardly anytime to read this week and I haven't even had the chance to get to this either ... hate when life gets in the way of my precious reading time.

Laura  (llbasaldua) | 790 comments I read/listened to it in audio and the effects the sounds is pretty cool! But the story over all was pretty slow and just meh till about the last 20% or so maybe less. I give it 3/5

I also read/listened to the second book and it is much like the first book actually a lot like the first book but slightly better.

I agree Laura. The audio was terrific!


Mika Michelle So I finally started reading this book. I haven't gotten to far yet but so far I have laughed at the dialogue. It's different to read but I think the style and graphics of the pages fit for the story.
