The 5th Wave

The only thing I can adequately compare this book to is a roller coaster. It's up, it's down, it's all over the place. My mind was racing when I finished this book. I couldn't even begin to accept that it was over. This sci-fi book seems to explain aliens in a way that actually makes it sound realistic. Rick Yancey portrays the protagonist, Cassie, as strong and intelligent and a character that I really appreciate. I can only hope that in this post-apocalyptic world, I could act like Ca...ssie. An all around, heart-pumping, great read.

OMG...one of the best books I've read in a while. Certainly worth anyone's time! Normally, I don't care for books that jump between people using the first person perspective because it makes it confusing to keep track of who is who. Mr. Yancey, however, does a wonderful job of creating different personas that come through in the reading so you immediately know that the perspective has switched. While I personally found it to be extremely easy to tell who was good and who was bad, I do think that Mr. Yancey did a fantastic job of trying to keep you guessing. And once you guess, he changes from "who's the bad guy?" to "how does it end" without skipping a beat. I am definitely looking forward to the next book!MoreLess

Personally, I adored this book. Not just because of the plot, but the CHARACTERS--they are all unique, deeply intimate, and original. Rick Yancey's prose was far from the norm, dark and humorous, but also poetic.Hats off to you, Yancey. You should be proud.
