Illuminae by Amie Kaufman
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
The layout of this book was so unique – rather than a straight narrative, you were able to experience the story through short bursts via IM chats, 3rd-party observations while transcribing security video, and AI logs. The characters developed over the course of the novel, but it was surprisingly the artificial intelligence A.I.D.E.N. that stole the show. It was an enjoyable story and the plot wasn’t predictable. I highly recommend the book to fans of young adult/teen novels, science fiction and truly well thought out narratives.
