Gemina by Jay Kristoff, Amie Kaufman

Gemina (Illuminae Files, #2)

by Jay Kristoff and Amie Kaufman

‘Wholly unique and utterly captivating.’ Marie Lu

Hanna is the station captain’s pampered daughter; Nik the reluctant member of a notorious crime family. But while the pair are struggling with the realities of life aboard the galaxy's most boring space station, little do they know that Kady Grant and the Hypatia are headed right toward Heimdall, carrying news of the Kerenza invasion.
When an elite BeiTech strike team invades the station, the two are thrown together to defend their home. But alien predators are picking off the station residents one by one, and a malfunction in the station's wormhole means the space-time continuum might be ripped apart before dinner.

Soon Hanna and Nik aren’t just fighting for their own survival; the fate of everyone on the Hypatia—and possibly the known universe—is in their hands.

But relax. They've totally got this. They hope.

Picking up about five minutes after Illuminae ends, Gemina is an electrifying sequel.

Review to come. For now, my feelings, in order while reading: Excitement, dread, disgust, shock, horror, shock, WTF OMG NO, sadness, elation, shock, vomit, shock, relief, TOO SOON RELIEF DAMMIT NO, vomit, WHAT DO YOU MEAN THE END?

That last line? NOT COOL GUYS (talking to the authors). I mean, it is BUT NOT COOL. We need to have a chat. And by chat I mean you need to tell me all about book 3 and who I need to bribe/kill/sleep with to get my hands on it early.
