Gone by Lisa McMann

Author: Lisa McMann
Reading level: Young Adult
Publisher: Simon Pulse

Rated 6/10
 Things should be great for Janie—she has graduated from high school and is spending her summer with Cabel, the guy she's totally in love with. But deep down she's panicking about how she's going to survive her future when getting sucked into other people's dreams is really starting to take its toll.
Things get even more complicated when she meets her father for the very first time—and he's in a coma. As Janie uncovers his secret past, she begins to realize that the choice thought she had has more dire consequences than she ever imagined.



MY REVIEW
This is the third and final book in the Wake trilogy. It was an OK book, not the best or the worst I have read. The ending was pretty good but I had to force myself to read the first half. Out of all the books in this series the first was the best. It's the summer after she narked on the teachers at her high school who were drugging and raping students at parties they threw. She is vacationing with her boyfreind Cabel when she is called home because the father she never knew is in a coma and dying. Janie soon figures out he is a dream catcher as well by entering his dreams and that there is another option instead of losing her hands and eye sight. She soon realizes though that her other option may not be any better than her first option.
