Lelia’s New Obsession: THE 5th WAVE by Rick Yancey
Much like the extraterrestrial invaders in this post-apocalyptic thriller, The 5th Wave will psychologically batter you until you inevitably succumb to it, letting go of everything you thought you knew, and relinquishing any hope of fully understanding the madness and horrors of Yancey’s alien Armageddon.

I would liken the experience of reading this book to walking on razor-thin ice, knowing that any second it might break, plunging you into icy darkness. The 5th Wave feels heavy, like the pages themselves are weighed down by the words of the story. But the writing style and the endearingly sarcastic heroine—defiant in the face of absolute despair—make it compulsively readable despite the horrors that are depicted.
