BOOK REVIEW: The 5th Wave.

Hello Booklovers! How are you doing? Today I'm gonna review The 5th wave by Rick Yancey.
Title: The 5th Wave. (The 5th Wave #1)
Author: Rick Yancey.
Published by: Putman in 2013.
Find it on: Goodreads.
Summary:
16101128After the 1st wave, only darkness remains. After the 2nd, only the lucky escape. And after the 3rd, only the unlucky survive. After the 4th wave, only one rule applies: trust no one.

Now, it’s the dawn of the 5th wave, and on a lonely stretch of highway, Cassie runs from Them. The beings who only look human, who roam the countryside killing anyone they see. Who have scattered Earth’s last survivors. To stay alone is to stay alive, Cassie believes, until she meets Evan Walker.

Beguiling and mysterious, Evan Walker may be Cassie’s only hope for rescuing her brother—or even saving herself. But Cassie must choose: between trust and despair, between defiance and surrender, between life and death. To give up or to get up.

After the 1st wave, only darkness remains. After the 2nd, only the lucky escape. And after the 3rd, only the unlucky survive. After the 4th wave, only one rule applies: trust no one.

Thoghts:
This book is written in 3 different POV's: Cassie, Zombie and in 3rd person (only 2 chapters). The thing with the POV's was a problem for me. Why? Well, it's because You are following Cassie for 20 or 25 pages and then for other 30 pages you are following the story of Zombie, which is very different. So, the thing it's that at the beginning I was like: "Ugh, now I have to read the Zombie chapter." So at the beginning I had this problem but from the page number 100 the book took a different path. It became a very fast paced book with characters with different stories that started to have a relationship even when they seem to be very different. At the end I loved how Rick Yancey destroyed the earth and also the plot twist of the book. I'm alredy reading Book 2 "The Infinite Sea", so I hope I love it so so much!
Rating: 4.5 stars. "At the beginning it was a very slow book, but from page 100 it's a very fast-paced book! Awesome read!"

That's all for now. Hope to see you soon in the blog! Bye!
