5th Wave Review, By Rick Yancey no spoilers


Sorry I didn’t write last week. I had a paper due. Anyway this week I’m going to be reviewing The 5th wave. Since the movie has come out.
So I read this book over christmas last year. Which is good because over christmas break I got 14 books. I give the 5th wave 5 stars. You know how most books set in apocalyptic settings are either post-apocalyptic or pre-apocalyptic. There are the occasional few set in the apocalyptic, which is what the 5th wave is set in. There are twist and turns throughout the series, but I’ve only read the first 2 books, since the third hasn’t come out yet. But one the bright side it does come out this month.
Ok sorry, I just went out on one of my rants. So this is a strange book, well the way it’s told is strange. It’s told in both first person and third person. In first person is told by Cassiopia or Cassie. She meets Evan Walker.
In third person the narrator focuses on a few people but mainly on Evan Walker and Ben Parish. Both of which Cassie likes. Oh sorry I just spoiled somethings.
Long story short I loved this. I read it while me and my family were opening presents. I’m not saying you should do that. I’m just saying, this was a great book.

Splintered, by A. G. Howard

This post contains no spoilers, just what I thought of the book and my view on age recommendations
next week I'll post more about Splintered

I loved this book and I couldn't put it down. I think I read it in like two days. It may be a little mature but I loved it. It incorporates magic with the real world and it's based off of Alice in Wonderland. It may be a little gruesome at times. Like near the end, but that wasn't so bad. I fell in love with the character, especially Rabid White, Howard's take on the White Rabbit. And, I've read a lot of books with love triangles, this one is weird.
For ages I would say 13 and up, but that's just me.
Splintered is the first book in the trilogy and there is also compaine book with stories after Ensnared, the last book.
Oh and one more thing. I said this is based off Alice in Wonderland, please do not mistake that for a retelling, this is more like three generations after that, set in our time and Wonderlands version of time. If you read the book you'll know what I mean by that. So to recap, Alyssa is not Alice.
Bye until next week.

Insanity, Book one, By Cameron Jace

I read this book is great... but I would not suggest it for anyone 12 or under, even thought I read when I was 12, wh the reason for this is because, girls are getting murdered by the Cheshire cat and getting their mouths sewn into smiles. I also wouldn't recommend it if you love the Cheshire cat or the Caterpillar.
Spoilers coming up 
Alice Wonder has been a patient at the Radcliffe Lunatic Asylum for the past 2 years, after accidentally killing her boyfriend and class. There she is subject to shock therapy in the "mushroom" an doses of medications. Not to mention her pet tiger lily, that taunts her everyday. Then Pillar the Killer (aka the caterpillar from Alice in Wonderland) wants to see her, and asks her to help him find the Cheshire Killer, she agrees in exchange for him telling her, her lost memories. He helps her on her adventure to find the Cheshire killer. He gets her out of the asylum for the first time. She begins her fake life under the alias of a Oxford psychology student. On her first trip she meets the mystery Jack Diamonds. The Pillar and Alice meet the duchess, the White Queen, and the Red Queen. Though this is not actually said for a while, a lot of fans, like me, think that the Queen of England is the Red Queen. The Cheshire leaves hints and puzzles for Alice and the Pillar to follow. Alice has to save poor little Constance from the Cheshire more than once. Once when he hides her behind the great fire place in Oxford and once when the Cheshire sucks his smiles souls out of her, at the cat throwing festival. With the help of Jack they escape. For about a week, then the next book starts.
All in all I loved this book. It was great, sometimes it was a little, gruesome, at times, but it wasn't like that most of the time.
