Summary via Goodreads:

How do you rid the Earth of seven billion humans? Rid the humans of their humanity.

Surviving the first four waves was nearly impossible. Now Cassie Sullivan finds herself in a new world, a world in which the fundamental trust that binds us together is gone. As the 5th Wave rolls across the landscape, Cassie, Ben, and Ringer are forced to confront the Others’ ultimate goal: the extermination of the human race.

Cassie and her friends haven’t seen the depths to which the Others will sink, nor have the Others seen the heights to which humanity will rise, in the ultimate battle between life and death, hope and despair, love and hate.

Why I'm Waiting...

I loved the mix of action, teen lust/romance and mystery in the first novel. This series has totally upped the game of dystopians by adding in aliens and I love it. It has been TORTURE waiting for book two! Especially with all the movie news regarding book one.

My favorite character is Evan by far and there's kind of a cliffhanger at the end of book 1 so I'm anxious to get some answers here.
