Waiting on Wednesday: The Last Star (The 5th Wave #3) by Rick Yancey

Image
Title: The Last Star (The 5th Wave #3) Author: Rick Yancey Pages: 368 Genre: Science Fiction/YA Publisher: Razorbill Canada/G.P. Putnam's Sons BYR Release Date: May 24, 2016 Summary (Goodreads) We’re here, then we’re gone, and that was true before they came. That’s always been true. The Others didn’t invent death; they just perfected it. Gave death a face to put back in our face, because they knew that was the only way to crush us. It won’t end on any continent or ocean, no mountain or plain, jungle or desert. It will end where it began, where it had been from the beginning, on the battlefield of the last beating human heart. Master storyteller Rick Yancey invokes triumph, loss, and unrelenting action as the fate of the planet is decided in the conclusion to this epic series.

The 5th Wave (Movie Review)

The 5th Wave Book by: Rick Yancey  Release Date: January 22, 2016 Just after watching The 5th Wave in theaters, I know already that I want to watch it again. The movie is roughly 2 hours long and it followed Rick Yancey's novel. Since the book came out back in 2013, I knew I had to instantly read it because it was going to be a hit. Thank you Penguin Canada for allowing me to review this book! The 5th Wave is one of my favorite books.  The acting that Chloe Grace Moretz who portrays Cassie (our heroine in the books) did an amazing job. Any movie she has done recently has been really good. The novel had me at the edge of my toes and now I really want to re-read the book.  Plus the actors who played Ben and Evan were beyond hot and did a great job with their characters (especially with one scene with Evan and Cassie). If you haven't already seen the movie, I recommend you buy your ticket to this movie, see it today or even read the book because you wil...
