The 5th Wave - Rick Yancey (The 5th Wave #1)

Sorry fellow book lovers that I haven't been behind the computer for a while. However, do I have something in store for you.

Rick Yancey has blown away by mind. As Jillian Rose Reed says, "Put a flavored condom on your head because your mind is about to be blown."

Synopsis:

After the 1st wave, only darkness remains. After the 2nd, only the lucky escape. And after the 3rd, only the unlucky survive. After the 4th wave, only one rule applies: trust no one.

Now, it’s the dawn of the 5th wave, and on a lonely stretch of highway, Cassie runs from Them. The beings who only look human, who roam the countryside killing anyone they see. Who have scattered Earth’s last survivors. To stay alone is to stay alive, Cassie believes, until she meets Evan Walker.

Beguiling and mysterious, Evan Walker may be Cassie’s only hope for rescuing her brother—or even saving herself. But Cassie must choose: between trust and despair, between defiance and surrender, between life and death. To give up or to get up.

There are so many POV's throughout this book it is almost hard to keep up with but it is so thrilling. There's Zombie, there's Sammy, there's Cassie for Cassiopeia, and there's Evan Walker.

I haven't finished this book yet but 50 more pages to go and plus I needed to upload this to you guys because I am way to excited for everyone else to read this book as well. Now it might seem like it amounts to much but I absolutely fell in love with it because of how it blew my mind and out me on a rollercoaster of emotions.

Evan Walker claims to be human but is he? Can you trust anyone? Wait for my update tonight, everyone. 

XOXO 

Update:

"Step One: the orderly...Step Two: the bathroom...Step Three: wet willy..."

I just about died when I read this line because of course it will shock just about anyone if you give them a wet willy. Trust me, I have tried.

Okay, so this book is perfect for those with the tastes for corruption and apocalypse styled novels. No, not zombie status but close enough. But this book is a beautiful in it's own way. Strangely, has a twist of forbidden love in it and I can sense a love triangle in the making. 

Now, you might groan at the fact that there is a love triangle but it is nothing like Twilight and their sappy romances but more or less like The Hunger Games because it is two different sides of the same coin. If that makes sense. 

I recommend this book to everyone of all ages because there are no graphic scenes romantically or otherwise. It is truly a tragic love story. I rate this book a solid 5 out 5 stars even if it took me a while to finish.

Of Poseidon - Anna Banks (The Syrena Legacy #1)

Published Date: May 22, 2012

Genre: Fantasy/Young Adult

I just want to point out how much I love the cover art for this book alone. As you read further into this fantastic novel, you'll find out why the art is like this. I don't know about you but I jump around as soon as I see the resemblance between the words in the book and the cover art. 

Synopsis: 

Galen is the prince of the Syrena, sent to land to find a girl he's heard can communicate with fish. Emma is on vacation at the beach. When she runs into Galen—literally, ouch!—both teens sense a connection. But it will take several encounters, including a deadly one with a shark, for Galen to be convinced of Emma's gifts. Now, if he can only convince Emma that she holds the key to his kingdom...

Told from both Emma and Galen's points of view, here is a fish-out-of-water story that sparkles with intrigue, humor, and waves of romance.

I just want to laugh at the fact that last part of the synopsis: "...waves of romance" (Anna Banks) because I mean come on, once you read this, you'll automatically get what I mean by this. 

Galen and Emma have a blooming and yet swoon worthy romance that you'll be jealous of automatically. If I could meet an attractive man just like Galen just how Emma did and get away with it to have an epic romance, then yes, I would give up my life just to do so. 

Anyways, I rate this book a 5 stars out of 5 and ready to review the next novel, Of Triton.

Shadows - Jennifer. L. Armentrout (Lux #.5)

Published Date: February 21, 2012

Genre: Sci-Fi/Young Adult

Synopsis: The last thing Dawson Black expected was Bethany Williams. As a Luxen, an alien life form on Earth, human girls are…well, fun. But since the Luxen have to keep their true identities a secret, falling for one would be insane.

DANGEROUS. TEMPTING. UNDENIABLE.
CAPTIVATED. LURED. LOVED.

Bethany can’t deny the immediate connection between her and Dawson. And even though boys aren’t a complication she wants, she can’t stay away from him. Still, whenever they lock eyes, she’s drawn in.

Dawson is keeping a secret that will change her existence…and put her life in jeopardy. But even he can’t stop risking everything for one human girl. Or from a fate that is as unavoidable as love itself.

Okay considering the fact that I was not going to read this book at all was just insane.

I did read the Lux series before I read the novella or prequel. Okay so I knew what was going to happen but I did get a better insight on everyone while Dawson was there with them. However, Jennifer L. Armentrout's POV for this really confused me. I understood the whole going back and forth thing with Bethany and Dawson but then she inserted Daemon (His twin brother's POV into it) so that did not really make sense until the end.

I was heart broken when I read this.

I knew what was going to happen but not how to happened. Okay, I am totally going off on a tangent. It was hard not to guess what was going to happen next considered I knew the future for these characters. That just sounds like Ms. Crazy Pants.

Not something I want to be known for.

However, it does make me want to divulge myself into these novels again now that I know the beginning of Daemon's brooding character.

As if he wouldn't fall for a human girl. So cliché. But so good. I can't argue with that. No one can't argue with that.

Arum suck donkey balls.

Okay, tell me this. I know they said that the Arum are nothing like the Luxen. But what if, just what if, the Arum are just Luxen who turn dark. It is a weird concept and in my head, I get it.

I wish you guys could understand my logic here.

Anyways, I would definitely recommend reading this and the rest of the series. I rate this book a solid 3 out of 5 stars.
