The Last Star by Rick Yancey is a book that I am so, so, so excited for I absolutely loved the other books in The 5th Wave series, and have been waiting for this final instalment. I am certain that this will be the perfect conclusion to the trilogy, and I can’t wait to experience it for myself!
The Last Star by Rick Yancey
Title: The Last StarAuthor: Rick Yancey
Publisher: G.P. Putnam's Sons Books for Young Readers
Publication Date: May 24, 2016
The enemy is Other. The enemy is us.
They’re down here, they’re up there, they’re nowhere. They want the Earth, they want us to have it. They came to wipe us out, they came to save us.
But beneath these riddles lies one truth: Cassie has been betrayed. So has Ringer. Zombie. Nugget. And all 7.5 billion people who used to live on our planet. Betrayed first by the Others, and now by ourselves.
In these last days, Earth’s remaining survivors will need to decide what’s more important: saving themselves…or saving what makes us human.
Book Quotes: The Last Star by RIck Yancey
Love is forever. If it wasn’t, it wouldn’t be love. The world is beautiful. If it wasn’t, it wouldn’t be the world.
Some things down to the smallest of things, are worth the sum of all things.
Really, science is wonderful, but why does it tend to suck all the joyous mystery from the world?
About Rick Yancey

I bought the first book last week so I may wait to read until this is released. I hate waiting on the next installment 🙂
That is a great idea! It took me about 6 months to read the first. It was so long!
I have only read the first one. I maybe read the first few pages of The Infinite Sea and gave up 🙁 It just didn’t click. I hope you enjoy this release though!
I have to say, I liked the first book, and a little less the second, I’m not sure why, I just felt confused and with so many questions… BUT I’m looking forward to that one, too, I really want to know how that ends!
Yes!!!! It has been wayyy too long since the second book came out, we need to know how it all ends! i hope that this will live up to the hype 🙂
here’s my WoW!
I hope you thoroughly enjoy this one, and thanks for sharing. Here’s mine: “IT ENDS WITH US”
I do have the first book but never found the time to read it. I might wait until all the books are out and then pick it up. It certainly enjoys very good reviews.

I NEED to know how this series ends! There are too many questions left unanswered and I can’t wait to see how it ends!
This is another one of those series that I haven’t started yet because I was waiting for the all of the books to be released. Almost time!
I just bought the first two books in this series yesterday! I really, really want to get to them before this book comes out so that I’m caught up, I’ve heard mixed things about the series, but I still want to give it a go. I hope I love it.
I hope that you enjoy it too! 🙂
I love the covers of this series. I have mixed feelings about this series, mostly due to the mixed reactions I’ve heard from others. But I’m still willing to give this a go. #dontjudgeabookbyitsmovie
I really need to read the 5th Wave trilogy, it sounds like a great series. Thanks for reminding me about it.
I liked book one. But could not get into book 2. Curious to hear how book 3 turns out.
I have books 1 and 2 and am waiting until after the last book is released to start it. Great Pick.
