The Infinite Sea (The 5th Wave #2) by Rick Yancey - Restarting September 1st 2021

tomorrow

[☆☆Hannah☆☆]

I'm up to Chapter 42.


(view spoiler)[The chapter with Poundcake's story was intense. I can't imagine someone having to watch that happen. It was nice that Evan has returned. Too bad he is in bad shape. I'm just hoping that the group can get along well enough to get themselves out of the mess they will end up in. Since Ben really doesn't trust Evan. (hide spoiler)]

[☆☆Hannah☆☆]

I'm finished.


(view spoiler)[I really wish we had more time with Evan or at least learned more about the aliens. I'm glad that Cassie and Razor were able to escape and hopefully they will catch up to the rest. (hide spoiler)]

[Joanne]

16% I enjoyed Ringers perspective, but Cassie sort of is getting on my nerves. i really want to know where Evan is at the moment and what happened with ringer and the choppers. I also get the feeling that Ben likes Ringer.

[Joanne]

40% Cassie, Ben and Evan are definitely on my nerves now. I really loved Poundcakes perspective. I really want to know whats happened with teacup and Ringer. I also forgot to mention that the starting prologue was really interesting and I want to know if it'll be important later on.

[Joanne]

70% I'm really sad about what happened to Poundcake and really wished this Grace person hadn't shown up she's so annoying I hate her! Sammy's new attitude sort of scares me in a way, how a 5 year old is acting and treating people even tough.

[Joanne]

85% I really love Razor and this bond he and Ringer are developing :)

[Joanne]

Finished! I'm so sad about Razor and Poundcake they were my favourite characters and they both died! I can't believe this at first I was angry because he betrayed her but then he saved her and he and her had that really cute moment. It was such a downer that Evan and Cassie ended the book

Reading from the 4th of November 2016

********************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************

[Eesh]

End of I: The Problem of Rats
(view spoiler)[Ringer is in so much trouble... Why the fuck did Teacup have to follow her? (hide spoiler)]

[Eesh]

Chapter 20
(view spoiler)[Grace is so creepy. And disturbing. And disturbed. She needs to be dead. (hide spoiler)]

[Eesh]

End of III- The Last Star
(view spoiler)[Okay, I'm pretty sure Evan isn't dead because he's still an important character. But how's he blow the place up? And is Grace dead? She better be. (hide spoiler)]

[Eesh]

End of Book 1
(view spoiler)[It was Poundcake! Wow, he was defiinitely a surprise. But so awesome. (hide spoiler)]

[Eesh]

Finished
(view spoiler)[Is it bad that I'm kinda glad that Teacup died. Sure, she was only an innocent little girl, but Ringer would never have gotten away as long as she lived. And all because she couldn't stay inside the fucking house. (hide spoiler)]

[Xiamera]

That start was a bit brutal. Poor kid.

[Xiamera]

End of part one: can't say I like Ringer anymore than I ever did. I wonder what's her plan here. (view spoiler)[It sucks that Teacup was shot but did Ringer have to before she sussed out the situation? Would a Silencer have been so obvious? Did she stop to think? It was all reactionary like Cassie and the crucifix soldier. Guess that was the purpose of sticking that in there. (hide spoiler)]

[Xiamera]

31% (view spoiler)[Grace has ticked every psychopath box there is. (hide spoiler)]

[Xiamera]

89% (view spoiler)[ Um so I really need to know why Ringer was injected. Is this maybe to make up for Grace and Evan? (hide spoiler)]

[Xiamera]

[spoilers removed]"

Lol no it's not bad at all. She was just a plot device anyways.

[Xiamera]

Finished. (view spoiler)[ Sucks that Razor had to die. It was basically the same situation between Ringer and Razor as it was between Cassie and Evan. I want more clarity on this Wonderland thing. Humans are always their greatest enemies. (hide spoiler)]

[Carrie]

37% (view spoiler)[ Here's a question.... why is it all dystopian books there is always a food shortage when if there is only a handful of people left where did it all go? There is practically a store on ever corner these days in America and if everyone died out then there shouldn't be many left to clear those out. (hide spoiler)]

[Carrie]

Xiamera wrote: "31% [spoilers removed]"

(view spoiler)[ I think Grace is a good addition to the story to show just how evil and cruel the aliens actually are up close. In the first book they were pretending to be human and Evan was good and he was the only one we really got to know. Hearing what had gone in the world so far was they only way to get to know the aliens, now with Grace it's making them a lot more scarier. (hide spoiler)]

[Carrie]

Xiamera wrote: "89% [spoilers removed]"

(view spoiler)[ Could be... (hide spoiler)]

[Carrie]

Quirks wrote: "Finished
[spoilers removed]"

(view spoiler)[ I kept wondering why she was still alive every time she was mentioned, psychological tool I suppose. Sad to lose anyone in a fight but it only holds back the stronger protecting someone like Teacup. (hide spoiler)]

[Jamie]

I am still going to read this. Starting today. Sorry, first week of the month and my glasses broke so no reading for me much until now. Now playing catchup on a bunch of BRs lol

[Xiamera]

Carrie wrote: "37% [spoilers removed]"

(view spoiler)[Grocery stores are almost always the first places to be looted in any disaster and this was the fifth wave so I can't imagine there would be any stores still intact. Also, people are messy about looting. So, I would imagine that things are strewn all about, windows were broken and everything exposed to the elements. (hide spoiler)]

[Jamie]

End of part 1 (view spoiler)[So sad and worried about Teacup right now.... (hide spoiler)]

[Jamie]

End of part 2 Bit confused with what the others were doing (view spoiler)[Interesting conversation Cassie and Ringer had. Stand off.. (hide spoiler)]

[Jamie]

End of part 5 (view spoiler)[What was the point of getting to know pOundcake if he just dies?!?!. (hide spoiler)]

[Jamie]

Done Unimpressed. (view spoiler)[Maybe because I was sick ans stufy headed (IDK) but I didn't follow a lot of what happened toward the end with RInger. Except I am sad about Teacup it would seem so I feel it was all for nothing. Pfft. (hide spoiler)]

Yea it does. The chapters are pretty short. I like the POV's more with this book.

[❀ Crystal ✿ -]

30% (view spoiler)[Well at least Evan is OK even if he is now with one of his own kind. One who seems might suspicious of him. Crazy what happened to Teacup, hope she's ok. (hide spoiler)]

[[deleted user]]

26.33% "Up to Ch. 18: (view spoiler)[ That opening is crazy, they are using kids to kill humans, using compassion to kill. I can't believe TeaCup is gone. What happened to Zombie? He better had not gotten killed. Finally the where is Evan question got answered. I am not liking this Grace person. She is just like Evan but not really, well at least she is taking care of him. (hide spoiler)]"

[[deleted user]]

45.33% "Up to Ch. 36: (view spoiler)[ Omg I remember Megan, I want to cry. I remember the beginning of this book too, that child with his throat hurting. Nooooo. Megan has that device in her throat... it's going to explode. I hope Evan can help them, but Grace is giving me the creeps! Where is she and when is she going to come out and Booo? We still need to find Ringer. (hide spoiler)]"

[[deleted user]]

72.33% "Up to Ch. 57: (view spoiler)[ What in the hell? what did they pump Ringer (Marika) with? Teacup might not be dead after all!!! Yeay! I am liking Razor. Vosch needs to be killed already. I also want to cry for PoundCake, he is gone without having found out what happened to his little brother. I have a feeling he is right and they did use him for those stupid throat bombs. He took Grace with him though!! Now where is Evan! (hide spoiler)]"

[[deleted user]]

❀ Crystal ✿ - wrote: "30% [spoilers removed]"

yes finally we know... (view spoiler)[ I don't know about this Grace person. I wanted to cry for Teacup. Poor Ringer needed to make a decision. How about that opening to this book? crazy hu? (hide spoiler)]

[[deleted user]]

92.67% "up to Ch. 77: (view spoiler)[ Well, that kinda sucked for Razor. I really thought he was going to be on her side. What will she find inside that warehouse? I liked that Razor was trying to make her laugh. 1/4 Asian, 1/4 Apache... Go Ringer. (hide spoiler)]"

[[deleted user]]

98% Now I'm super mad at Alex! You heroic idiot!!!

[[deleted user]]

Finished... (view spoiler)[ Teacup is dead *sad* but at least Evan is alive and we are not left wondering where he is this time. (hide spoiler)]

[[deleted user]]

Let me know if you want to read the next one... i'd be up for it...

YES I do, ASAP so whenever works for you!

[❀ Crystal ✿ -]

50% (view spoiler)[Goodness now they are using children as bombs, this is crazy. Hope the lil girl will be ok. (hide spoiler)]

[❀ Crystal ✿ -]

62% (view spoiler)[ Poor Poundcake. I'm so sad he had to die, goodness they're all so young. And I really wanted him to reunite with his baby brother too :( Also what's up with Grace....... Who is she and is she even going to be dead? (hide spoiler)]

[❀ Crystal ✿ -]

85% (view spoiler)[Oh man I knew all those taps and stupid talk about his made up game were all some crazy military tactic or something like Morse code lol. Yessssss take them down girl 😈 (hide spoiler)]

[❀ Crystal ✿ -]

Finished (view spoiler)[Oh come on that can’t be how it ends. At least not with Ringers story who kinda crept out nowhere and took mainstays from Claire. I’m so devastated by all that happened and honestly it’s taking time to process since so much happens all at once. I’m still reeling that Razer was playing her the whole time 🤬😭🤬😭 now he’s most likely dead and he really just killed the other girl after all this, like wtf, ughhh I’m so upset by this end and feel like I need to start the last book ASAP because these alien conscious’s or whatever they are need to go. I am still a bit confused on what they are. The end of the book went so quick I’m not sure I fully processed what Vosch was saying to Ringer. Are they humans? Or are they nothing, just there but not. Which only confuses me more because if they don’t even have physical form what do they even need or want a planet for? Lastly I will say the audio was a challenge to listen to because it doesn’t notate when there’s a POV shift. Had to make sure I was paying attention lol (hide spoiler)]

(view spoiler)[I was shocked too by this. I can admit it's smart though using kids but damn that really was one hell of an opener (hide spoiler)]

[❀ Crystal ✿ -]

Cinthia wrote: "72.33% "Up to Ch. 57: [spoilers removed]""

(view spoiler)[Yeah this bothers me. Poor kid. While I'm mad at him for leaving his brother, at the same time he too was a child and can't really be blamed for that. Then again I was hoping for some grand miracle and they'd be reunited but now Poundcake is gone :( Least he went out in an explosive way on his own terms! (hide spoiler)]
