Reading Skills
In the previous post you learned about the four waves and the hardships the humans had to live through while the aliens wouldn't give her a break. Well I can make a text to text connection because in Ender's Game the alines, or visitors, were way ahead in technology and we seemed to have no hope, while they kept pushing on. But in Ender's Game they had a commander whose tactics lead them to victory and then they stole the aliens technology and studied it, and in this book there seems to be no hope for the humans having not being able to shoot down any of the mother ships or drones and having no technology to help deal with the virus. While all this time it is leading up to the 5th Wave which we don't know what is going to happen. BUT I predict that it will be a full assault of the alien army and the humans will have to somehow out smart them or somehow destroy the mother ship. I also predict that the main character Cassie will have a major role in figuring out how to deal wit the aliens.
In the story it mentions how the dad stays strong and makes the best of every moment even when his wife is slowly dieing on the sofa. He doesn't break and tells the little white lies that parents would tell their children to make them feel better. I can make a text to world connection because many people out in the 3rd world are poor or are living pay-check to pay-check, and they need to stay strong and keep a profit to keep the family up. Another prediction I have is that Cassie will find Sammie, her brother which she last saw being taken to Wright-Patterson Air force Base, and she will have to protect him along with the person who recently saved her life in the last chapter that I read.
While she still has hope she knows that she can trust next to no one and is inspired to be the battlefield between the aliens. The one who faces them down and represents humanity by never giving up.
I thought that your blog was interesting and very detailed. I really like how you described the characters and the settings for the book Fyre. I think you did a great job explaining them and I actually felt like I was reading the book. I haven't read either of these books before and at first I didn't think that I would like to because I usually don't read about aliens or mythical creatures, but the way you have talked about them made me really interested in reading them. Your posts have completely changed my view on these types of books. Also, in your posts about The 5th Wave, I like how you went through four of the waves and told what they were and how much of an effect it had on the world and all of the people. I enjoyed reading your posts and will be reading these series soon.
