I only had one major issue with this book, that was being able to keep up with the different narrators of the sections as they changed. The characters were so well written and developed I felt as if I was one of them myself. Every twist and turn I was holding my breath trying to figure out what was going to happen next. I absolutely fell in love with Cassie and Sammy's characters and I couldn't have completed this journey without them both! Thank heavens I gave this book ...more

“What were they thinking? 'It's an alien apocalypse! Quick, grab the beer!”
I loved this book on so many levels. The writing style was incredible and the 2 main POVs were really intriguing. At first I was a bit confused with the change of the protagonist in every part of the book but later it made the story complete, giving us two angles to it which at the end finally collapse. The plot was intriguing and some lines actually made me laugh. I enjoyed reading this book a lot more that I ...more

Seit ich im Dezember die Neuerscheinungen für das erste Halbjahr 2014 vorgestellt habe, ist mir Die 5. Welle nicht mehr aus dem Kopf gegangen. Ich freute mich tierisch darauf, konnte es teilweise gar nicht abwarten.
Als ich vor Kurzem mein Rezensionsexemplar vom Verlag bekam, war ich überglücklich und hatte sehr hohe Erwartungen. Und diese wurden nicht enttäuscht!
Zu Anfang erfahren wir in Rückblenden einiges über die Ankunft der Außerirdischen und Cassies Leben vor der ersten Welle. Danach werde ...more

Sadly, I was highly disappointed. I'm still excited for the movie and hope it clears things up.

I loved this book so much! I do not want to wait til September to read The Infinite Sea. Cassie was a great character and I loved the way that Yancey split the book between her voice, Sammy's and Ben's. I knew that she and Ben would eventually see one another, but I didn't predict how long it would take or that Evan would be part of the picture too. I cannot wait to read the next installment and explore The Monstrumologist series as well.
