4.25. I have been hesitant to read this book for a few years now, all because the idea of aliens attacking our planet terrifies me. But, desiring to take a break from a Game of Thrones and actually finish a book in 2016, I decided to grab this book of my shelf and read it before the movie is released later this week.

I am glad to say that I was pleasantly surprised with the book. I liked the characters, I liked the struggles they faced, and I loved the action-packed ending. I couldn't give it a full five stars because aliens do still scare me, but I'm excited to carry on with series.
