"The Fifth Wave" Make-up Blog

I think that the title, "The Fifth Wave", fits the story. I first I didn't think this because there was no mention of a fifth wave. First there was a mention of the first, second, third, and fourth wave. I think out of the four waves the worst is the second wave. The second, wave was when the aliens killed a bunch of people by using the power of natural disasters like tornados and hurricanes. Since people are already have some caution over these things, it probably scared a bunch of people when everything hit them at once. Not to mention all the deaths.

The fifth wave is by far the worst wave though. Having humans turn against each other without knowing is dead wrong. I have to say, it was a good tactic on the aliens part. The one thing that the aliens forgot to corporate with their plan it the power of love and kindness. This is the one thing someone can't beat out of a person. Plus, it grows stronger and stronger as the aliens take away other loved ones and leave just the one.

My least favorite character is Evan. Evan is an alien hunting Cassie. He has been hunting Cassie since she has left Camp Ashpit. Of course, she doesn't know this. I don't like him because he betrayed   his own kind. Sure, that means one less killer alien on the planet, but I wouldn't trust him. My favorite character is Sammy, Cassie's little brother. He at the age where he starts to be slightly independent and the invasion is getting in the way of it. As soon as Ben leaves him, Sammy becomes way more independent than he needs to be.

"Glass" Make-up Blog **SPOILER ALERT**

I believe that the characters are realistic because it seems like someone really would do what Kristina would do. To me, a bunch of people make poor decisions like doing drugs and "falling in love". I honestly can't believe that Kristina made the same bad choices twice. Hopefully, she fixes some of her mistakes because having two children and doing drugs, won't work out. I feel that having the characters be realistic makes the story not only more believable, but more entertaining. I'm not sure if this is based off a true story, but I couldn't honestly see that it would be.

There are a few characters that you should get to know. First there is Kristina, she the main character in the book. She is the character that allows the story to go on. Then there is Bree. She's not really in this book, but still plays a major role. Bree is Kristina's dark side. She is the one who started all of the bad decisions. She is another reason why the story continues. With out her, the first book would have been ten pages long and there would have never been a second book. Once Kristina saw Adam, Bree came out of the closet.

There is also Kristina's deadbeat dad. He helped the story start to. Kristina wanted to see him, but he lives in California. Kristina went out there one summer and fell in love, while she was in love she did drugs. I somewhat blame her dad for this because he encouraged her to start them. There is also Kristina's mom. Her mom tried to make Kristina nothing like her father, but Kristina's curious got in the way. Her baby, Hunter, plays a little part in the story. I think that Hunter is the reason Kristina is having another baby. Not that he did anything wrong, but Kristina grew apart and wanted someone else to love.
