What readers would want to expect about this book would be a suspenseful thriller about a boy and a girl with the ability to go into dreams. They would expect an enemy to be frightened of as the killer kills its victims. That was not what I got. I got a relatively boring contemporary book with barely a hint of paranormal events. 
 Throughout 85% of WAKE, I was bored. There was nothing that could cure that except DNFing and yet I didn't! I do actually want to stop DNFing books but WAKE made it so... so... hard. I swear that this book is one of the most confusing and slightly irritating novels I have ever read. 
 EXTREMELY disappointing.
