(Obsidio (Illuminae Files #3) by: Amie Kaufman, Jay Kristoff)
Last year I used some AIDAN quotes from Gemina for TWHS. This time, I wanted to spotlight some of the women in Obsidio. I just love this series! The books are witty, funny, emotional, and an amazing reading experience.
In the first quote, we have Asha’s journal, in the form of video recordings she’s addressed to Kady. I love that this quote showcases the emotional turmoil that Asha is going through, running into her old boyfriend and his perfect hair, while also trying to survive her planet’s occupation. Such a great example of the emotional undercurrents in this series.
In the second quote, we see the humor and wit of the series. Throughout the three books, AIDAN does not get sarcasm at all. And those scenes are just some of my favorites!
