For seventeen-year-old Janie, getting sucked into other people's dreams at any given moment is getting tired. Especially the falling dreams, and the standing-in-front-of-the-class-naked ones. But then there are the nightmares, the ones that chill her to the bone like the one where she is in a strange housein a dirty kitchenand a sinister monster that edges ever closer. This is the nightmare that she keeps falling into, the one where, for the first time, Janie is more than a witness to someone else's twisted psyche. She is a participant

This is YA, but with a bit of an intense subject matter. (School drama, drugs, ⚠️ for abuse) It requires some suspension of belief, because dreams and the like. But it‘s a slow burn of a book, by the end I was flipping pages as fast I could, waiting to get to the end. Also, I am very glad I also had book 2! #recentlyread #nospoilers #scifi #dreams #fastpaced #imagination 😳🙂😃🤔

LibrarianRyan I agree. I love this series. 2y
aa_guer2021 @LibrarianRyan such a find. Both were $3! 2y
LibrarianRyan now about the only way to find them is in a big compilations book Don't close your eyes. I like that these books are relatively small, but when all 3 are bound together it becomes a behemoth that turns away some people. 2y

Wake is a great but quick read. It‘s pretty easy 2-3 day read but it‘s still so filled with amazing plots, twists and outcomes! 100% recommended to anyone who likes young adult fiction, mystical, romance, and mystery books!

A really interesting premise (the main character gets sucked into other people's dreams) but the plot really fizzled out quickly. The whole thing lacked proper narrative and was put together from little snippets, which did convey the choppy quality of dreams but did not make for a good novel. The story was really far-fetched and I don't mean the dream catching part but the part that was supposed to be realistic.

"And every time he dreams it, the bell rings before Janie can figure out how to help him."

I went into this book blind. I had no idea what it was about. As I was reading it I found it to have a writing style I've never seen before. It gives the book a quick pace. I enjoyed reading it and can't wait to continue.

Since the main character in this book gets sucked into people's dreams, I'm sure she hopes to avoid their #WildestDreams. #AugustGrrrl

Addictive and highly relatable!!!! Only problem is the book is so short, definitely looking forward to the next book.

Short and simple. I've got a lot of questions about this book that weren't even addressed, but the characters were at least semi-likable. The plot was fast-paced and interesting, but it skipped over a lot. Still, it's worth a read.
