    1. Didn t want to believe negative reviews, but alas, the book IS actually bad.My opinion doesn t have anything to do with the ending, even though so many are upset about it, but rather with the fact that the novel is just simply badly written Who would have thought that McMann, a master of succinct and intense writing, can cook up a book which, with its 214 pages, seems so overlong, pointless and emotionless Who would have thought I d have to skim over some pages to be finally done with it There i [...]

    2. I loved it I won t say and post any spoilers other than I think Lisa did a great job with they way the series finished off And no, that s not giving anything away All I can say is that those who loved Wake and Fade need to pre order it now.GONE is about Janie s journey into figuring out of who she is as a dream catcher and finding out about herself She ll learn about how she got her abilities as she finds out about the man who s dreams she keeps getting sucked into, as he s sitting in a chai [...]

    3. Now, I m not saying that length and quality are completely connected they re definitely not All I am saying here is that the entire Dream Catcher series is shorter than many adult novels and is half the length of some middle grade series There just isn t much going on and there wasn t enough substance for me Sure, I enjoyed the writing Sure, I thought the story was interesting But when it came to writing a review, I felt like there just wasn t enough This series is the first where I just do not [...]

    4. Note don t read this if you want to avoid spoilers.I will begin by stating that I was not expecting this series to improve I loved Wake and Fade to the point where I would have been content, nay, delighted, if I simply got of the same in Gone Much to my dismay, Gone fails in comparison to both its predecessors.Beef number one Like Wake and Fade, Gone is told in the present tense from Janie s point of view, but unlike the previous two books of the series, there is no crime solving subplot Gone r [...]

    6. Kind of dissapointed in this one After such a long wait, and a real appreciation for the first two, I expected I love the writing style and the characters in this series, but this book did not really advance the overall plot and both Janie and Cabel are not very likable here They seem to have taken steps back instead of forward, which I understand is part of life sometimes, but it seems a strange choice for the conclusion to a series Janie is miserable almost all the time in this book, I get th [...]

    7. I m finding it to be and common for YA series to end poorly It seems like Lisa McMann, like a few other authors, got sloppy by the third book and stopped trying, because she knew that anyone who loved the first 2 books, would automatically want to read this one Well, don t waste your time I suggest reading some of the spoiler reviews instead.The concept was there but it was the kind of book that I wanted to skim through to get to the point This book has WAY too much poor me my life is so hard [...]

    8. This book is super short a bit over 200 pages and there is just not that much that actually happens A lot of characterization but not much plot What IS there is good, but I felt like it could have been so much better The storyline of Janie finding her father felt like a subplot than the complete plot I think the book would have been 5 stars if, like in the first two books, there had been a mystery or crime to solve, with this plot about her family and her future woven into it If the author show [...]

    9. Great ending to a terrific series.This final story about Janie, the dreamcatcher, and Cabel, the boy who loves her, doesn t disappoint This one doesn t have the crime plotline of the first two books, but instead deals with the mystery of Janie s past and future Her choices are even devastating than she thought they were and she perpares to make heartbreaking choices.We get to know a little about Janie s father and small bits about her mother as well The time stamps on each section works very we [...]

    11. Reason for Reading Next and last in the series.Summary Janie has been left with a decision to make about her future and concentrates on making that decision However, a wrench is thrown into her contemplations when her never before known father shows up in ICU causing her alcoholic mother to go off the deep end and add a twist to her previous choice Now she must decide which is lesser of two evils.Comments Right of the bat I ll say this was rather disappointing For a good portion of the book, fro [...]

    12. This is definately my favorite in the series With every book I felt that hole of despair building in my chest, only to never actually break While each book was a good fast read, it just never seemed to take that leap that I needed The tears just never quite made it And thenYep yep thats right I CRIED I finally broke, and I welcomed every tear.This book just seemed to go a little deeper While the first two stayed relitively close to the surface, this one dived straight down The emotions felt rea [...]

    13. This is one of the strangest trilogies I ve read Almost seems like each book in the trilogy is from a different genre, though each has the same main characters and core situations The first book is like a paranormal fantasy romance, the second a detective thriller, and the third is like a teen social issues book I didn t like the third book as much as the other two I liked the first one best , though I still read it in record time Kind of a maudlin and depressing book, dealing with family probl [...]

    15. Reading this book took no time at all Especially because I picked it up right after finishing Fade so, besides it being so short, since the story continues almost without interruption, there wasn t any need to slow down at the beginning.Before anything else, let s get something out of the way the meat of the trilogy is in Fade The ending there could should have been that of the whole series This one reads like a long epilogue, revisiting and reaffirming some decisions that had already been made [...]

    16. I wasn t thinking much when I first opened up Gone I read Wake and Fade much too long ago to remember anything but the main details of the books There must have been something I liked about those books, since I had Gone on my list of to reads , but unfortunately, Gone did not help me figure out why I had it on my list.Lisa McMann s style of writing is unique and very different from what I m used to reading I find nothing wrong with the style in her previous two books, but it irked me for some re [...]

    18. I disliked this book very much The characters were unlikable, the plot was nonexistent, and the writing style was absolutely infuriating.There was no healthy relationships in this book Janie and her mother had a horrible relationship Her mother drinks profusely and never even thinks about her daughter Janie s mother also had no character development whatsoever We learn about her past with Janie s father, but she does not grow from her experience at all She remains an unloving drunk And then Jani [...]

    19. What would you do if you were involuntarily sucked into other people s dreams Would you run away, or stay to help the dreamers Gone by Susan Mcmann, was a riveting fantasy novel based around the main character Janie and her boyfriend Cabel It was set in 2010 Janie is a dream catcher She unwillingly enters the dreams of anyone who sleeps around her The consequence of this continues dilemma being losing the loss of her hands and eyes But there is another option if she chooses isolation she may jus [...]

    20. Like the other two books in this trilogy, I read Gone in a matter of hours it was just that good Once I started on it, I couldn t force myself to put it down for any reason, and I do mean any At first, I was a little frustrated with it because Janie and Cabel were constantly sniping at each other, but I quickly got over that and kept reading.The revelations and discoveries surrounding Janie s father was an interesting twist First of all because I wasn t expecting him to ever come into the series [...]

    21. I am a little disappointed in this book I am not sure if I actually have any closure I would have thought with this being the final book in the trilogy everything would have been tied up happy ending or not, but I feel just as lost if not The story details Janie decision to either continue using her ability with all the consequences or becoming an isolated hermit She makes up her mind pretty early in the book, but then discovers her father is not only living in the same town as she is but that [...]

    22. The series felt like 1 book divided into 3 Throughout the first two books I was motivated by wondering what had happened to Janie s the main character mother to make her a disaffected drunk and Janie a responsible, self motivated, honest teenager Sadly, those questions were not answered in the third book Dorothea, Janie s mother, is a miserable, self involved drunk with few redeeming qualities I m trying to think of one now, and nothing comes to mind While she is probably an accurate portrayal o [...]

    23. I think I distanced myself from this book for long enough And my only words can be, what the hell happened What happened to the wonderful fast paced plots that had me on the edge of my seat What happened to all the characters I fell in love with Well, they were gone , how appropriately named this book is.The majority ends up being some major angsty emo fest between Janie and Cabel The reason why I loved their relationship in the beginning because they were able to work through their past trouble [...]

    24. Gone by Lisa McMann marks the final installment to the Wake Series It was bitter sweet to finish this book, as I was excited to continue with Janie and Cabel s journey, but very sad to see it come to a close This book was somewhat different than the first two as I saw a shift in Janie s character From the narrative and her reaction to various situations, I sensed an edge and frustration that she kept concealed in the first two books It was great to see Cabel as he s always been supportive, lovin [...]

    26. This is one of the most incredible series that I have ever read It s simple creativity is genius While I enjoyed Wake and Fade than this book I still think it was a great ending to a great series.It s hard to talk about this book without spoiling Wake and Fade for people that haven t read them By the way, if you haven t read them What are you waiting for This book is full of Janie s turmoil She has to decide But both of her options are equally terrible At least that is what she thinks One of my [...]

    27. This was exctremely sad, and often bittersweet, and it took me in some surprising directions, and some obvious directions.Janie really carried the world on her shoulders, and even when she thought she d found the perfect solution to her little problem, she realized that the fork was a lot worse than what she had thought in the beginning And really good for her that Cabe was always so patient Captain was great, a real mother figure for Janie, and my goodness, did she need one.The end was bittersw [...]

    28. For me, this book wasn t that great Don t get me wrong, I loved the series as a whole, but I was really hoping for something with action like the second book, Fade I really enjoyed the fact that Janie met her father even under the circumstances but it was just too boring and I found myself hoping to get through it as fast as possible I did like the ending however, mainly because it left it sure of being unsure if that makes sense For someone who may not get my meaning, I mean that Janie and Cabe [...]

    30. Original post at One More PageI thought I reviewed the first two books in the Dream Catcher series on my personal blog, but I was mistaken, so the review of the third book would have to have some kind of recap of the first two.The Dream Catcher series by Lisa McMann is about Janie Hannagan, who has the strange ability to get into other people s dreams The series deals with Janie and dealing with her strange ability, the people around her, her relationships and the uses of her powers In the first [...]
