Fade (Wake, Book 2)
Lisa McMann
Janie is a "dream catcher".  Since discovering this ability in Wake, she has spent a bit of time training herself to control her power.  Fade is the next step in that story.

While I enjoyed Wake, I think I expected more from Fade.  Like Wake, McMann uses her very quick and readable style to move the story along, and the reader can tear through the book in a matter of hours.  I felt like she had some interesting ideas, but the ending was a little over the top.  Even after you get over the idea that a person's dreams will some how lead to the solving of a crime, the last few chapters just ended up in a very weird place. 

It feels like McMann is probably setting up a third book (or more?) for this series because of what is revealed at the end of this book.

well, at least that sounds very FINAL. It's not like they are that hard to read so I wouldn't blame you (or me) if we have to see how she ends it LOL!
