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. "Wildly entertaining . . .

We are the 5th wave

— The 5th Wave, 2013.
“Because if I am the last one, then I am humanity. And if this is humanity's last war, then I am the battlefield.”

Desde que “A 5ª Onda“ estreiou nos cinemas brasileiros, tem sido um universo que continuo visitando inúmeras vezes, através da adaptação.
Com isso, preciso apontar que a razão pela qual iniciei essa saga, foi a extrema vontade de explorar mais sobre Ben e Cassie. Porém, após o desenrolar da história, certamente quem me fez prosseguir com a leitura foi Evan. É desconcertante a maneira que conseguiram arrebatar totalmente a essência do personagem… quem diria que Ben não seria meu favorito?
Uma leitura esplêndida contendo distopia, aquele toque de ficção científica e divergentes pontos de vista. A narrativa, em certas circunstâncias e para certas pessoas, pode tornar-se levemente cansativa devido o excesso de detalhes que ela contém. Entretanto, particularmente, confesso ter adorado isso! Concedeu para a história um ar extremamente realístico e uma ótima ambientação.
Concluo mencionando que achei o final corrido e caótico, contudo a leitura em si foi fluída, prazerosa e única. Estou extremamente ansiosa para o desfecho dessa história!
