I didn't like the writing - the rambling and constant talking to thereader/listener, it was annoying.The plot - I've read it before. The main character? Boring.2 stars.
Via http://onlectus.blogspot.com/2013/04/when-we-wake-by-karen-healey.htmlWhat the heck? I was totally into this book until Tegan made it to high school.Okay, so Tegan died and she revived 100 years later. Totally cool how Healey mentions things that other books don't.For instance, Tegan wakes up an...
Honestly I did not have high hopes for this book because of it's deja vu Across the Universe storyline but this was actually really good!So, in the year of 2027, Teegan was living the best day of her life. However, that ends abruptly when she gets shot and finds herself 100 years into the future whe...
DNF--I won't assign a star rating. Great story idea that is well written (in style) but the story seems on the back burner and it seems the author is more concerned with having a platform to share her views on social issues and the environment. I don't read ya to be hit over the head with this type ...
What happens after death? Well for Tegan, it's another life. 100 years from now. A fascinating premise indeed! Who's not intrigued by the future? Curious about the state of our planet, the technology, even the fashion? I was really excited to get into this book and for the most part it I really enjo...
Squee! I adored this book. Karen's two previous books were fantasy, and I liked them a whole lot. But this, her first published science fiction novel, is even better. This is an adventure story set in an Australia 115 years in our future, a world of spiralling climate change, legislated xenophobia, ...
When we wake was a book I knew I had to get my hands on. From the moment I saw the stunning white cover I was so curious about what was inside. I don’t know how many times I have said this but I am going to say it once again, white covers are the best! On a shelf they POP amongst all the blacks & ...
Teeg Oggletti can already see the effects of global warming on the world around her. The year is 2027, and the oceans are rising, the heat becoming more unbearable. But nothing prepares Teeg for what she's about to face in the future. What makes this novel worth reading is the interesting way that H...
At first sight When We Wake will call out for you, its bright, sharp, and almost white cover standing out on the shelf amongst the other covers, too dark in comparison. What the cover of When We Wake achieves is a sense of questioning already in the reader, and once the words ‘cryogenically frozen’ ...
