But later, after time had passed and the immediate emotional effect had waned, I was reading the negative reviews and felt somewhat. I could sense the distrust and fear in the air. I thought it was atmospheric and perfectly creepy. Enough, even, to write a song, with my sister, inspired by it. It is this latter experience that always has a strange effect on me.īecause, when I read The 5th Wave, I enjoyed it immensely. Sometimes these books get read by a few people and disappear, and sometimes they take off and become huge, gaining ever more praise and criticism. I am an emotional reader and an emotional rater afterall. Sometimes I give them 4 or 5 star reviews, rated purely based on the emotional high I experienced.
I haven't read any reviews before, so the first experience is entirely my own, as I find it.Īnd sometimes I love these books. Sometimes, I am lucky enough to get my hands on an ARC of a book and go into it with as close to no expectations as possible. “If aliens ever visit us, I think the outcome would be much as when Christopher Columbus first landed in America, which didn't turn out very well for the Native Americans.” - Stephen Hawking
