I just got through the first part of the book. The 5th wave seems interesting and there is certainly a lot to process the first few chapters but now i have to slow down and get to hw instead.
I'm reading this book really slowly, because I'm having my finals these days, and I have to study a lot. But I read first 15-ish chapters and I like it. The plot is new and fresh, unlike a lot of popular (YA) books.
it is definitely something different. I actually just finished it and loved it. I just got a cold so I am reading a lot more now that I have that and my spring break is this week. My grandfather is now reading and I think he likes it. I had to slow down in some parts and actually think about what I had just read since there were a lot of things going on. I am glad I got to read it though. I was surprised by how fast it took me to read the book.
Not yet done, but I'll try to finish it today.. yay.. I like it, but I'm not sure about the multi-main-characters. And I do not like Walker, he appears nice, but I just can't like him (or the romance in this book)....
Will post again once I finish (and I really hope it will be soon, I need to read other books xD)
i got a little confused when they switched characters but i thought it was really good. It definitely had a TON of action with a little bit of romance. There were some parts though where i had to sit and sometimes reread a sentence to make sure that i didn't miss anything. I haven't quite figured out if i like Walker or not. i think i will find out more though when i read the second one. :)
Finished.Finaly.
I don't know what to think.
Actualy I didn't like the ending, but I've decided to still give it 5 stars, though not yet sure.
Still thinking about how I feel about this book. A lot of mixed feelings.
note#1 - I liked Zombie's chapters a lot more then those from other characters POV.
note#2 - I like it how later on the story picks up on it's tempo, especialy last 3 ''books''. the beginning was quite slow.
Yeah it took me a while to get into it but when it picked up it didn't take me long to finish it. I had my granddad read it and he read it in like two days. I gave it five stars but I don't know if I will enjoy the second book or not. I just started it and already have very mixed feeling about it. Of course now I won't be we to read it until the weekend because school is absolutely crazy but I hope to finish it this month. I had a hard time getting into other books afterbi read this one. I can't wait to see how the whole series ends though. It should be interesting.
Yeah.. I'm not sure if I'll read the sequel in the near future.The last book is coming out in September, right? I think I'll maybe catch up with the series once they're completed.I didn't like the ending and it's stoping me whenever I think that I should read it. I don't know, I liked the plot of this book, I feel like the second one will ruin the first one for me.
(view spoiler)
Though, I'll read a review or two (and try not to spoiler myself) just to see if it's worth reading.
Oh Rick please don't ruin this series!!
I had a hard time with the ending too. It just seemed a bit rushed and i didnt really have much time to process the end and i still have unanswered questions. I am still trying to read the second book but with school i havent gotten very far in reading.
