I’m buddy reading this next week and I canny wait! I’m excited for the two pairs of characters from the first two books to meet 🙂
How weird, I literally JUST finished Obsidio about an hour ago…. I LOVED Isaac too, he’s such a sweetheart. A really solid series.
I actually need to start this series lol. I don’t mind being spoiled. So this video only has only encouraged me to buy them next pay day.
Thank you for introducing me to the Illuminae trilogy. I only started watching BookTube this year, your recommendations worked and I’m so glad I found out about this series. It’s now one of my favourites. Thank you 🙂
I enjoyed this book, but it wasn’t as amazing as the first two.
I am not able to decide whether to read it !!! Ahh i will just keep it on list …
(Emotional overdrive at 5:50 ( nice. Now i m gonna read it) )
I just feel like the format of this series didn’t work for me, it didn’t allow me to get as immersed in what was happening. It made me feel separated from the story, so I just felt pretty “meh” about the series unfortunately
I just started Obsidio, this made me so excited to continue!
Totally agree about the characters. It’s very reminiscent of what happened with Lunar Chronicles— as we added new pairs of characters each book, we got to spend less time with the new pair. This particularly stood out in Winter.
Hoping this channel isn’t going to get ruined with way too much “sponsored” trash like certain other booktube channels already have !
I clicked on this so fast.
I would like to give a shout out to Marie Lu for the absolutely fantastic drawings in Gemina and Obsidio. Literally one of my favourite things about the series.
I’m still processing the ending to obsido
