Wake

by Lisa McMann

Summary: What if you could never fall asleep in the same place as another person, because if you do, you fall into their dreams? Or worse yet...their nightmares? This is Janie's gift and her curse. She's never told anyone her secret, until now. But who can she really trust?

My thoughts: The premise of this novel alone is very unsettling. One scene that stood out to me was her falling asleep on a bus on a school trip, and being bombarded with all of the dreams of the many other people sleeping around her. It's an interesting and original concept, and this is a kind of weird, kind of creepy story. The sequel is called Fade.
