Student Review: The 5th Wave
Review by: Cassie C. (Period 3) Author: Rick Yancey Number of pages: 457 10-word summary: A teenage girl has to rescue her brother from aliens. Rating: 4 stars Review: This book was an easy read, the kind you'd enjoy in your free time. I kind of wish that it was clearer on who's perspective the book switched to, but the main characters were pretty well developed. Some of the deaths weren't as tragic as they could've been, mainly because the reader didn't have time to care for them as much.The book kept my interest with lots of surprises and twists. The 5th Wave was good, but it wasn't really a world perspective changing read. Favorite quotation: "Cruelty isn't a personality trait. Cruelty is a habit."
