BOOKED THIS WEEKEND with The Illuminae Files

It's no secret I LOVE the Illuminae series by Amie Kaufman and Jay Kristoff. The first book (Illuminae) was one of our Featured Reads last year, and it one of the most fantastic sci-fi space operas you could ever read. Book 2, Gemina, blew a hole in my mind that has still not recovered. So needless to say, I'm pretty eager to have my universe rocked by the next installment.

We're showing it some love this week because THE TITLE FOR BOOK #3 WAS JUST ANNOUNCED ON MONDAY!!!

The third and final book in the Illuminae Files trilogy, straight from Amie Kaufman's official announcement yesterday, is...

Hey, how about a title reveal? Check my next pic for details on the pre-order death giveaway! ETA: FAQ: * No, this doesn't mean it's black. * Yes, March. It'll be worth it. Please don't yell, it's no fun! * Yup, it's Latin for "siege".

Unfortunately, we also have to wait a little longer to read it. Amie and Jay also announced Obsidio will come out in March 2018 instead of October 2017.  *kicks and screams at the idea of being in ultra-frustrating book character limbo for six additional months*

Regardless of the new release date, catch yourselves up on this series, kids. Maybe even more than once. Make it three or four re-reads, just to be on the safe side. Because the countdown to the release of OBSIDIO on March 18, 2018 begins NOW!
