Wake was a good start to a new series. I really like the idea that Lisa McMann came up with; I think it's pretty original. The writing style for this book is a bit different than other typical YA books; McMann provides specific times for each scene in the book, and it's written in the present tense. Example- "11:31 am: Janie groans and opens her eyes. Her head is against the steering wheel."

Janie feels she has a wrecked of a life. Her mother is always wasted, she had to fend for herself, and she has to struggle with school.

This book was an interesting read. I loved the story only because it was interesting and not your typical young adult novel. The plot was cool. The romance was great. The experiences you feel through these characters are kind of depressing. They just have tough lives, but they learn to take care of themselves and to love so I thought that was great and really the main point of the story to me.
I liked to book it was very intresting, just picked up the second and cant wait to read what happens with janie and cabel !!!!!!!!!
I really enjoyed this. I like the style that it was written in and the story was kept at a steady pace.
not the mosttt exciting cause it was sorta predictable, but definitely enough to make me want to read the next books!
