Illuminae is a very YA-friendly sci-fi mystery/thriller (I know itās not tagged as a thriller, but it is) with minimal swearing (ācensored on reportsā), and only vague references to sex (jokes about āyour sisterā and references to acts done prior to the events of the story).Ā
Take it from someone who normally hates thrillers, this book is good. Admittedly, thereās a lot of death and blood (only a few disturbingly gory parts, though), so do keep that in mind, but I didnāt find it too uncomfortable and Iām normally a very squeamish person.Ā
Canāt wait for the next book!Ā

I know itās a lot of content warnings, so do proceed with caution. Iām not very good with blood/gore, but I only had a couple small parts (see below) that made me uncomfortable. Thereās a lot of death, but itās not vividly gory until about 45% (I think) into the bookbooksngrannies's review against another edition
