Review of 'The 5th Wave' on 'Goodreads'

4 stars

this begins as a good apocalyptic sci-fi, not too primitive, not too teenish, not too action-driven. good stuff. than for some reason the author decides to do a «twilight» part, and it's as tedious and cringy and out of place as it gets... but somehow the story continues, and it's quite an interesting read after all. i think i'll go on and give it the 4 stars despite those «twilight» parts.
