"It was pretty good, the first two were a lot better. It was a little confusing and slow at the beginning but in the last like 75 pages it picked up a lot. Quite a few unexpected surprises."

"So upset with the ending, was in shock, but it’s a must if you read 1 and 2."

Brooke Van Avery

"The 5th wave is just a really good series !! "

Hannah Lee Bentley

"I think the first one was also the best."

Jessica Gorlitz

"Still finishing up on this book but it not stopping me from completing this Trilogy‼️"

Jesstyn Baker

"The end sad but bitter sweet at the same time "

Talitha Wood

"Dives deep into the nature of the human condition. Words I use to describe this book: War. Genocide. Courage. Unbreakable Love. Contains explicit language"

Amanda Blacksmith

"I genuinely don’t know if I can finish this book. I typically don’t DNF books, but I am not really invested in this universe whatsoever. I don’t care that much for the characters and like I genuinely don’t know what I think about this series. The first two books were only okay imo, and I’ve started a bit of this one but it’s just…not it. Idk is it worth it? I don’t want to go into a reading slump by trying to read a book I don’t care about."
