![]() ![]() ![]() Wake isn't necessarily spectacular for its plot or its character (though both of these things are good too) but rather how it is written. After all, how well can you tell a story with so few words? Turns out, you can tell a story very well with fewer words. Picking up the 200+ page book, I wasn't expecting too much between the pages. For the first time, Janie is more than a witness to someone else's twisted psyche. Then she falls into a gruesome nightmare, one that chills her to the bone. So Janie lives on the fringe, cursed with an ability she doesn't want and can't control. She can't tell anybody about what she does-they'd never believe her, or worse, they'd think she's a freak. ![]() Janie's seen enough fantasy booty to last her a lifetime. Especially the falling dreams, the naked-but-nobody-notices dreams, and the sex-crazed dreams. The Mini-Review: A quick enjoyable ride, Wake will have you staying up to figure out how to make Janie sleep!įor seventeen-year-old Janie, getting sucked into other people's dreams is getting old. I like the glowing quality to the letters.įirst Sentence: "Janie Hannangan's math book slips from her fingers." It looks good with the other covers and after reading the novel, I don't have a better one in mind but it was never something that jumped off the shelf. ![]()
