I didn't love Gemina QUITE as much as I loved Illuminae, but that's because after reading Illuminae like four times, I have Amie and Jay *sort of* figured so some of the big twists I was able to figure out, and I wanted a bit more surprise. But it's still AMAZING.<br />2. Hanna is VERY FEISTY.<br />3. YES!

Plus I had heard the audiobook for the first book was amazing and kinda wanted to listen to this one. However, so many people are saying this book is better than the first.
