Review
I’ve had many so recommendations for me to read this book; I figured, why not? Since the movie is coming out soon, I decided to read the book before it comes out.  Just like many other people, I loved this book!  I can see why they recommended it to me. This book was filled with action and mystery, leaving you on the edge of your seat when reading.  The writing style was unique, interesting and descriptive.  I felt like I was living “The 5th Wave” when reading it.  Good thing there’s a second book.
