The 5th Wave hits the shelves tomorrow morning!
I plan to post my review in the next few days, but wanted to let you know that it is, in a word,
FANTASTIC!
Better than the Twilight trilogy.
Better than the Hunger Games trilogy.
Better than The Passage trilogy.
Imagine a mash-up of Ender's Game, The Road and The Hunger Games.
Don't care for teenage angst and silly romantic head games? Not to worry.
Oh, and, my husband thought it was great, too!
Happy Reading!
Perfect description with your mash up. I am making myself a personal cheerleader for this book.
ReplyDeleteLoved your review on Amazon, Tammy!
DeleteWow! I usually shy away from YA and teen novels but trusting your opinion, I will be reading this book soon.
ReplyDeleteIt's definitely worthwhile. My husband even thinks so!
DeleteBTW, I noticed on your sidebar that you read Still Life this year. Is that the first time or is this a reread?
ReplyDeleteIt was a re-read. I've been meaning to read more from the series and decided to give the first book a listen. I enjoyed it, but still didn't fall in love...
DeleteWow! You've made this sound like a must read!
ReplyDeleteIt is! Get thee to a bookstore and buy it! I sold several copies in the first week. I think it will be one of those that starts to sell with word-of-mouth.
DeleteStarred reviews in Booklist and PW. And a rave from Prairie Horizons. Must be a winner.
ReplyDeleteAww, I'm honored to be included with Booklist and PW! Thanks, Mary!
DeleteI'd never heard of this one until the other day and now I'm seeing it everywhere! Maybe I'll get the audio and since Rod liked it I'll pass it on to Scott too.
ReplyDeleteOoooh, I'll bet the audio is amazing! Wonder who the reader is...
DeleteNever knew anything about this book until just now! So going to look it up and read it!!!! I loved all of the books you listed and to think of a mish-mash with all of them sounds pretty flipping cool!
ReplyDeleteI think you'll love it! Let me know. :)
DeleteI'll be reading or listening to this! :)
ReplyDeleteYay! :)
