The 5th Wave uses mostly indirect characterization.
The main character, Cassie, is described through indirect characterization. For example, she is trustworthy. I know this because even if Evan, anew character, says her brother is probably dead, she is going to find him anyway. This shows that she is trustworthy because Cassie made a promise to go back to get him and she will no matter what the situation or risk may be.
Ben is described through indirect characterization also. "Reaching out my hand to comfort him, finding the top of his freshly shaved head, running my fingertips over his scalp. Sissy liked for me to rub her head when she felt bad--maybe Nugget likes it too....'Come here,' I whisper to Nugget, scooting over and patting the mattress. 'I'll say your praye rwith you, and then you can go to sleep, okay?'" This quote explained that Ben is caring. I know this because Ben cares about Nugget enough to say his prayer with him evev though he will most likly get kitchen duty for a month.
