5TH WAVE meets NOPE meets ARRIVAL meets INTERSTELLAR After encountering an alien while dealing with grief, Astra, a runaway, must choose between saving humanity from an alien invasion and reconciling with her dad before it’s too late. ALT👀 #BluePit #YA #literary #scifi #book

It’s a literary fiction that deals more with grief, father and daughter relationship, coming of age, friendship, existential crises, love, loneliness, and themes like person vs society, person vs person and person vs self.

It has the same portrayal of the father and daughter story of INTERSTELLAR, first alien contact of ARRIVAL, suspense and mystery of NOPE and the alien hostility and female high school MC of THE FIFTH WAVE.

Absolutely love the cast choices going on here. Like, Tom Hanks and Meryl Streep in the same mix as Jenna Ortega and Zendaya? *chef's kiss* Legit, though, *love* the art and vibes! Perfect for a sci-fi thriller!
