Review Gone - Lisa McMann

New review under the 'about me' section on the side! ->

This is the last book in this trilogy and, maybe, I should have told you in the first review that if you haven't read the first book in this Dream Catcher trilogy then you should read more about them before you go buy them. I loved them even though it was complete different from what I thought they would be. These books might not be for everyone so some of you might be a little bit disappointed. But if you're like me, then you will like them :)

Anyway! I guess I have to find something else to read now that I'm finished with this trilogy and I've no idea which book that would be yet. I guess we'll find out on my next review!

I'll see you (hopefully) soon!

Bye x


Edit: Whoopsie! Forgot to add the review page to the side under the serie/trilogies review section. It's there now! --->

New review, Fade - Lisa McMann

I have made a new page for this review so there won't be any "spoilers" on here. The review is right under the "About me" :)

I thought I could try this out with this trilogy. I have other reviews on this page from other series, but they were already a part of a series so... as lazy as I am, I haven't bother editing those and add them to a new page the way I have done with this one. Maybe I will fix that in the future, but right now this will make do :P

Hope you still enjoy this blog as much I am writing my thoughts and stuff and of course, to have a reason to read as much as I want :)

I'll see you soon!

And by soon, I mean tomorrow at the latest...this trilogy is so short that I will finish the last one by tomorrow. Or maybe tonight..I dunno :P

Bye! x

Wake - Lisa McMann

Wake by Lisa McMann is the first book in the Wake/Dream Catcher Trilogy. This is also the first book I've ever read from her. Before I read this, I thought that this was going to be a bit creepy and stuff. Some dangerous dreams or something. I don't know :P But this was something completely else! And in a good way too! Well, at least I think it was good tho..

The Blurb
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 Thoughts:
Like I said in the beginning, I did not expect this. Anyway. This is one of the books you read, but at the same time it doesn't feel like it at all. (If that made any sense? )I started reading this before I went to bed and suddenly it was time for me to put it down and sleep. You know those kind of movies/episodes/youtube vids that is so great that, when it's over, you feel like no time has passed and you look at the time and it's suddenly much later than you'd thought? That's the feeling I got from this book. Probably a bad example but you get the idea.. I hope? It's difficult to describe.

The way this story has been written is so different and peculiar from the others that I've read (apart from a few) with a date and time. There are chapters, but it's split up by day to day and time of day "entries" in Janie's life. I think that this was also one of the reason why it felt like I read it the way I did because the chapters was split up the way they had and the "entries" were short so it wasn't so "heavy" to read.

Seriously... especially this book! Ahh..

From trying to describe the feeling of reading this to how I thought about this book. I really enjoyed reading this and it was surprisingly great. Like I said earlier: I thought this was another creepy book that I would read this week (thanks to the blurb) but nooo. This was a lovely book and with a complete different plot than I thought. Instead of creepy psycho killers with horrible dreams, there was a guy with bad dreams and Janie and him becomes close. The only "creepy"dreams was his and her friend's. Other than that there was some weird dreams and a few sweet dreams. And that was it. No scary stuff at all :P And I'm looking forward to begin on the next book in this trilogy tonight! :)

This must be one of the worst reviews I made, but hey! At least I'm trying to describe my thoughts the best way a Norwegian can to describe things in English!
(Yes...that's my best excuse for writing bad! Ha!)



4/5

8 new books and some update

Hello! It's been a while but nothing much have happened since last time. I'm still reading Edge of Eternity and hopefully I will finish it soon! I know...It takes some time to finish it and I don't have a really good excuse other than I haven't been in a reading mood or had that much time lately (blaming my bf for staying a week at a time). At least I'm over halfway in the book and I still enjoy reading it. So far, so good!

Over to my new books!:

I finally got the books I've been waiting for since christmas. Two of them I got a few weeks ago and the other 6 I got today:

Variant (nr. 1 in the Variant series(?)) by Robison Wells
Feedback (nr. 2 in the Variant series(?)) by Robison Wells
Onyx (nr. 2 in the Lux series) by Jennifer L. Armentrout
Opal (nr. 3 in the Lux series) by Jennifer L. Aremntrout
Wake (nr. 1 in the Wake trilogy) by Lisa McMann
Fade (nr. 2 in the Wake trilogy) by Lisa McMann
Gone (nr. 3 in the Wake trilogy) by Lisa McMann
We Are Not Ourselves by Matthew Thomas

That was a long list!

Not sure what else to write other than to say (a bit late) Happy New Year and I promise I will try and update more often with reviews on books I've already read (if I remember what the stories was all about) and ones I've just read and other things :)

Bye! x
