Book Review of The 5th Wave (5th Wave, Bk 1)

I found this book on a suggested young adult reading list and my daughter who is 12 was looking for more books to read. I read the book first before my daughter and while I found it enjoyable and a good read after you get through the beginning of the book, I thought that this book is for a mature reader. There is a lot of launguage used in the book, that I personally thought the author could have done without, that distracts from the reading. Also some of the situations that the characters find themselves in I don't think is for the young reader. I suggest this book but to very mature middle schoolers and up (more suited to a high school audience).
