Book Review #234 - Wake (Dream Catchers #1) by Lisa McMann


NOT ALL DREAMS ARE SWEET.

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.

She 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....
 
 
My Rating: 3.5/5
 
 
This book was very fast paced and very short. It also has a very unique plot.
 
 
The writing was very choppy. There were alot of flashbacks which was confusing at times.
 
 
I really liked the idea of Janie being sucked into peoples dreams but I think the author didn't know where to take the story so she added in the Cabel storyline. That ruined the book for me.
 
 
The romance between Janie and Cabel was well paced and the connection between them was there. It was very believable for a young adult novel.
