Please join Jay, Amanda and I as we continue the The 5th Wave with book 2!

[Amanda]

Thanks for making the thread Trisha.

I'm so excited for this one.

[Trisha, lives on coffee]

Me too!! I feel like we've been waiting forever for this sequel but I know it hasn't been that long

this was one of my favorite dystopian books I've ever read!! SO EXCITED!

Have you see the news and casting for the movie for book 1?

[Trisha, lives on coffee]

(Jay ~ keep us posted if this date works for you!!)

[Jay]

Yeah

Chloë Grace Moretz is awesome

[Mandiann]

I'm in!

[Amanda]

Thanks for that info. I didn't even know they were making this one into a movie. There have been so many YA books being announced that are going to be movies that I've lost track.

Yes, I'm finishing a few books and then I'll be back :)

[Caroline]

I timed it just right! Finished up a box this morning so I am starting today.

[Jay]

I'm disappointed with the sequel

I don't like that the book is (view spoiler)[.mostly about Ringer.. (hide spoiler)]

Grace (view spoiler)[.was really annoying Poundcake killing her was cool.. (hide spoiler)]

Poundcake (view spoiler)[.What happened to Poundcake was really messed up It was cool to learn why he doesn't talk and how he got his name .. (hide spoiler)]
Evan (view spoiler)[.So i guess he lost his alien powers I hope he gets them back.. (hide spoiler)]

[Trisha, lives on coffee]

oh no!!! You're not liking it Jay?! :(

I'm starting now!

How far is your comment in the book, Jay??

[Jay]

Really far

I just need to read 60 more pages

[Amanda]

Wow, you're pretty far Jay.

I started last night, but only got through part 1 so far. Right now I am slightly confused because I don't remember some of these characters that are being talked about.

ugh, I hate how long books take to come out sometimes

this might help. It's our previous buddy read for book 1:

[Caroline]

I just finished part 1 and I'm bummed. I don't like that he has added a new point of view.

[Amanda]

Thanks Trisha :) that helped a lot. There was just a couple of characters that I was fuzzy on.

[Jay]

I finished the book

The others are (view spoiler)[.not Aliens
They are super humans.
Ringer is now one of them. (hide spoiler)]

[Amanda]

Through part 4.

Evan (view spoiler)[I had a feeling that he did not die. I am glad that he is back. Now that he is without his gifts is he human or like a human. Can't wait to get more information. (hide spoiler)]

Poundcake (view spoiler)[his backstory about his mom was sad. What a difficult situation for someone to have to handle on their own. (hide spoiler)]

[Amanda]

Through part 6.

Megan (view spoiler)[how crazy that they put bombs in children. That is pretty scary. (hide spoiler)]

Grace (view spoiler)[she is crazy. I hope that Cassie can find a way to beat her. (hide spoiler)]

This one seems to be moving at a slower pace than the first book.

[Trisha, lives on coffee]

ugh, sorry guys. I've been an awful buddy on this one
I'm finally caught up enough elsewhere, I'm starting now

hmm...I hope the "slower pace" doesn't mean you aren't liking it Amanda :(
the reviews are making me nervous....

[Amanda]

It's been okay so far, but I am not enjoying it as much as the first book. With the first book I couldn't put it down.

[Trisha, lives on coffee]

Finally through part I

It's good so far
I'll definitely read more tomorrow
A 2nd POV ......hmmmm

[Amanda]

Finished. I liked this but not as much as the first book.

Cassie (view spoiler)[it's a big task for her to be the one to help end this all. Can't wait to see what will happen in the next book. (hide spoiler)]

Ringer (view spoiler)[her experience was brutal with what Vosch put her through. It seems like they were setting it up that she is going to help end this all as well. I wonder if she will join forces with Cassie. (hide spoiler)]

This one seemed to be more of a setup for everything in the next book. Can't wait to see what you think.

Poundcake [spoilers removed]"

I'm through Part V

I love that (view spoiler)[ Evan is back!! EVAN!!!! :D
yay!!
but what does being human mean now?? is this temporary? will he get all his...ugh...alien stuff back. this is confusing for now (hide spoiler)]

Wow, and I totally forgot (view spoiler)[ that we were with Cassie most of the time last book. for a moment there, I found her completely annoying (when she was arguing with Ringer) and then I remembering who she was, what she'd been through and what Evan meant to her...OH YEAH! LOL and book 1 came back to me! (hide spoiler)]

Ben (view spoiler)[ I hope Ben is okay.... :( (hide spoiler)]
Grace (view spoiler)[ was crazy...and still very much an alien. I'm sad she's gone, but I'm glad that Evan didn't have to kill her. the kids did it for him (hide spoiler)]

what will they do now?

Teacup (view spoiler)[ what on earth was she thinking?!?! (hide spoiler)]

I hope (view spoiler)[ Ringer and Teacup met up and everyone is okay (hide spoiler)]

Poundcake (view spoiler)[ that was so so sad. the story of losing the baby and his mom and how mean she was. how his dad didn't come back. my heart broke :( (hide spoiler)]

[Amanda]

I agree. I was so glad when (view spoiler)[Evan came back. I was hoping that he didn't die in the last book. (hide spoiler)]

I know what you mean. I forgot (view spoiler)[some of the nicknames and who they were. LOl, it had been a while since reading book 1, but it all came back to me. Especially after reading through the book 1 buddy read. (hide spoiler)]

[Trisha, lives on coffee]

and I hope nothing changes :) I'm loving this one so far
