And it left me feeling yeah, okay… umm nice? I mean we are in the death throes of an alien invasion, don’t know who to trust, who’s the enemy – it’s high stakes drama. It sucked the emotion out of what could have been a satisfyingly gut wrenching book. Much more so than its predecessors combined. It was hard to connect with the narrative because of the constant changing of POV. Especially towards the end with the introduction of new characters. But this book was underwhelming, I kinda liked it, but it lacked punch. Notoriously the last books in a series are where you get the bang for your buck and considering that the second instalment was a little *bleh* I was looking forward to a momentous culmination reminiscent of its debut. I was really excited to read the final chapter in the Fifth Wave trilogy. In these last days, Earth’s remaining survivors will need to decide what’s more important: saving themselves…or saving what makes us human. Betrayed first by the Others, and now by ourselves. And all 7.5 billion people who used to live on our planet. They came to wipe us out, they came to save us.īut beneath these riddles lies one truth: Cassie has been betrayed. They want the Earth, they want us to have it. They’re down here, they’re up there, they’re nowhere. An ending to the trilogy – executed like a belly-flop.
