Lisa McMann - Gone

Gone is the third and last book on the Wake series written by Lisa McMann.

"Janie thought she knew what her future held. And she thought she'd made her peace with it. But she can't handle dragging Cabel down with her.


She knows he will stay with her, despite what she sees in his dreams. He's amazing. And she's a train wreck. Janie sees only one way to give him the life he deserves - she has to disappear. And it's going to kill them both.


Then a stranger enters her life - and everything unravels. The future Janie once faced now has an ominous twist, and her choices are more dire than she'd ever thought possible. She alone must decide between the lesser of two evils. And time is running out..."

When I read all the books and completed the trilogy I put my mind rolling and thinking about the story and what lessons I could take from it.
The first thing I remembered was the last book was as dramatic as the second not tragic as I would think it would be if I started with Wake like a normal person. Then I remember that these books can really make you think that we should live in the moment and don't rush things, but at the same time to think twice before acting. You can take so many lessons from these 3 books that if I'd wrote every single one, I was still writing a month from today.

They didn't made a new trailer for each book but here's trailer, once again.

I read some comments on Youtube about the film they are making based on Wake and some people were saying Miley Cyrus was set to play Janie.
If you ask my opinion I'd I would not chose her. Because if she plays this role her fans will only watch the film because she's there and not because they read the book and now want to see the film adaptation. But I understand that if she's there profits will be pretty high and that's what they want when making a film.
So I 'm going to watch with or without Miley.

Lisa McMann - Fade

Fade is the second book on the Wake trilogy written by Lisa McMann.


"For Janie and Cabel, real life is getting tougher than the dreams. They're just trying ti carve out the little (secret) time together, but no such luck. Disturbing things happening at Fieldidge HIgh, yet nobody's talking.
When Janie taps into a classmate's violent nightmares, the case finally breaks open - but nothing goes as planned. Not even close. Janie's in way over her head, and Cabe's shocking behavior has grave consequences for them both.

Worse yet, Janie learns the truth about herself and her ability. And it's bleak. Seriously, brutal bleak. Not only is her fate as a Dream Catcher sealed, but what's to come is way darker than she'd ever feared..."

At least this was the second book I read and is the second book from the 3, that was the only thing I did right.

Lisa McMann - Wake

After two weeks without touching my computer at all, here I am back. I will write a few posts on a roll so if you have the time, stick around ;)

So, I read Wake by Lisa McMann which is the first book on the trilogy.

"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 believed 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 a than a witness to someone else's twisted psyche. She is a participant..."

I had a problem with this trilogy because I started by the last book, how stupid that may sound I understood enough to not see my mistake at the beginning, thus it will be pretty tough to explain the storyline and comment because my first book was the last and it's confusing.

I'm going to try my best, anyway.
During the first book, you see how Janie's life is and how her "super-power" is not that much of a positive thing and can almost and in an extreme level fatal.

I couldn't stop reading it despite my little accident. If you already read it you know these 3 books are pretty amazing. But if you haven't and are looking for some supernatural.and-romance kind of book I suggest this.

Here's the trailer.
