Friday Firsts is a new meme that runs every Friday over on Tenacious Reader. The idea is to feature the first few sentences/paragraph of your current book and try and outline your first impressions as a result. This is a quick and easy way to share a snippet of information about your current read and to perhaps tempt others. Stop on by and link up with Tenacious Reader. As this month is Sci fi Month 2016 my book today is a science fiction novel that I’ve been wanting to read for some time. Illuminae by Amie Kaurman and Jay Kristoff

My First Impressions
Well, it appears that Illuminae is going to be told in the epistolary style – which I love – think Bram Stoker’s Dracula or The Three by Sarah Lotz as two fine examples. From reading the start of this email it appears that some sort of corporate secret/conspiracy is being uncovered *wiggles eyebrows*. As to who is doing the revealing or why remains to be seen – from the memo above I’m thinking we’re going to find out the answers to those two key questions and perhaps experience a little of the danger that they went through to uncover this ‘dirt’!
What are you reading right now? Did it start out strong? Feel free to join in.
