![]() ![]() McMann is one of the first authors I have seen that uses jerky prose full of fragments, it's clean and concise. However, as the book progressed, the style became one of my favorite aspects. ![]() ![]() At first, I really disliked Wake because the choppy writing style irritated me. Told in minimalistic, short sequences, Wake is a short novel that took me less than a seating to finish. Though the beginning is kind of slow, the suspense soon gains momentum. 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. Number of Pages: Hardcover- each around 240-270 pagesįor seventeen-year-old Janie, getting sucked into other people's dreams is getting old. ![]()
