For seventeen-year-old Janie, getting sucked into other people’s dreams is getting old. Especially the falling dreams, the naked-but-nobody-notices dreams, and the sex-crazed dreams. Janie’s seen enough fantasy booty to last her a lifetime.
MY REVIEWShe can’t tell anybody about what she does – they’d never believe her, or worse, they’d think she’s a freak. So Janie lives on the fringe, cursed with an ability she doesn’t want and can’t control.
Then she falls into a gruesome nightmare, one that chills her to the bone. For the first time, Janie is more than a witness to someone else’s twisted psyche. She is a participant…
This is the first book in the Wake trilogy. I liked this book, it was fast paced and an easy read. The story and writing style is kinda simple but it was really nice and the characters grew on me. I loved the fact there wasn't too much happening at once. Seventeen year old Janie lives at home with her mom on the poor side of town. Ever since she could remember since the age of eight years old she has been sucked into people's dreams not able to do anything but watch. Janie soons starts to like Cabel, a boy who's a year older and a giant mystery to her(she thinks he's selling drugs). Soon Janie is sucked into his dreams at school and grows closer to him. She learns about him and all his secrets and even how to control the dreams she are put into. Don't want to give it all away,if you're looking for something simple yet nice then this book is for you! I can't wait to start on the sequel!!!!
