The 5th Wave by Rick Yancey

5.0

“Some things you can never leave behind. They don't belong to the past. They belong to you.”

If you look at the books I've read then you will be able to tell that I don't like Science Fiction books. It's not because they aint any good, but because they don't fit well with me. However, The 5th Wave blew me away. I've never been so invested in one's world and characters as much as I was with these.

Yeah, it was a little confusing sometimes, but I like confusing because the truth is their world is brutal and nothing like our own. Oh, I totally ship Evan and Cassie. They were perfect together and bounced so well off each other.

“I had it all wrong," he says. "Before I found you, I thought the only way to hold on was to find something to live for. It isn't. To hold on, you have to find something you're willing to die for.”
