Wake has an interesting premise, okay plot line, poor writing, and no character development, and in those ways reminded me of a James Patterson novel. There are millions of people over the world who love books like this, and it's no harm I guess, really. From about the fifth page, when I realized th...
Janie is a normal child until she starts visiting people’s dreams. This new ability affects her life, as in school many people fall asleep during boring classes and in the library. She also fears class trips and sleepovers and is nervous about having to drive. Finding herself in a dream while she’s ...
4.5 starsOK, this is why I love Janie : "But as scars go, it's in a perfectly sexy spot."The whole story was pretty slow to take off, and I was a little confused by the time and date stamps in the beginning, but once I got a hang of it, I loved how different and right to the point it made it all.Jan...

Interesting enough to make me want to read the rest of the trilogy, Wake should be given a chance but if it doesn’t get you within the first ¼ of the book, don’t be afraid to put it down. .. please read the full review here
I have been seeing these books on the Young Adult cart and being checked out a lot, but never looked into them. Then I went to a book reading Caris was doing at Evermore Nevermore in Mesa and Lisa McMann was there. I didn't say anything to her, but Caris told me her books were pretty good, so I deci...
