Thirteen Reasons Why by Jay Asher
4.0
It was a well told story. I appreciated the format and how seeing the same story through more than one person's eyes can be beneficial to the reader. It kept my attention the entire time.
Requiem by Lauren Oliver
4.0
FInished this book in a day! I needed to know and understand why Alex was being a dick. And what Lena was going to do about Julian AND Alex. The book left a little to be desired for me, but that's only because I had certain expectations going in. The ending was actually not my favorite, but I totally get what Oliver was doing. So, all in all, was I disappointed? A tiny bit. But I still enjoyed the ride the book took me on! :)
The Fault in Our Stars by John Green
5.0
Initially, I didn't think I would like the book because it took me about 100 pages in to get invested. I just wasn't seeing what the hype was. But around Chapter 12, I started to see what everyone else was seeing. John Green truly told a great story. Of love, of life, of death, of humor. It was so well done. Augustus Waters was an AMAZING concept of a character, as was Hazel Grace. While both of them are obviously my favorite characters, Isaac was quite a treat as well.
I do not think you will regret this read. At all. John Green, I am forever a fan...
(P.S. I'm very good at being vague, huh? haha)

The 5th Wave by Rick Yancey
5.0
What to say about this book??!! It was fantastic! I was sucked in from page one and it didn't let me go until the very end. The characters in this story are so real and so intense that at times I find myself pissed off or extremely happy or sad about something that one of them did. Evan, oh ever loving, Evan. That man/boy is AMAZING. Such a great concept for a character. As is Ben.
It's amazing that, while I enjoyed Cassie -- my eyes were on Evan, Ben, and even the supporting characters. I truly enjoyed every single page of this book. There was excellent plot development and a few surprises that I didn't see coming. It was just an all around great read.
I highly recommend this one to any and everyone. Especially for lovers of The Hunger Games, Divergent, etc. It will grab you immediately.
It ends very well. And there is a conclusion. But you can actually see where there's room for the second book Yancey is currently writing. For which, I CANNOT wait!
