Wake: First Immpresions

Well. Janie is a 16 yr. old girl who has special abbilities to enter people's nightmares, and dreams. and has been able to go into her best freind Cassie's dreams and she goes into Cassie's friend, Melinnda's dreams also and finds out some very interesting things so far that I have read. She finds out that Melinnda pictures Cassie naked and Janie is forced to watch and she cannot leave, and Cassie and Melinnda kiss in a closet, so she figures out that Melinnda likes Cassie deeply. She has a dream with Cassie, that there's a little boy and he is drowning and smiling saying "Help me Cassie!" but is smiling while he's saying it, so now Janie is suspicious about Cassie, and wonders is she's really an only child or not, like Cassie says she is.

I can't really say that I have the same experiences as Janie, entering peoples dreams, but I can say that once I have actually had the same dream as a friend of mine. and we both said what ever the other person dreamed. It was hilarious. We had the same class one day, and when we got home for the weekend, we both fell asleep in front of my television and dreamed about why the teacher was being so mean, and gave us all that homework, and I stood up and said "Maybe I should just get you fired for being a rude teacher!" mind you I was only eight yrs. old. And my friend said, "I second the motion!" really awkward, but still very funny. I think that the author has a unique point in this story, but from what I have managed to get out of it, is that you may think you know a person on the outside from what they tell you, but in Janie's case, she gets to know them on a deeper level, and finds out whatever they are hiding, that they don't want to reach the surface. The author's style really gets you into the book, to where you want to know more, and gives so much detail that you can't put the book down, and that's why you always want to know what's happening next! Her usage in writing really means that she has a big imagination for everything that's going in every direction you could think of. I think that Janie is going to enter Cassie's dream one more time, and Cassie will wake up and Janie will too, and they will both confess to each other about themselves, and Janie will finally know about Cassie's secret. How I think I know this, is becuase it's giving enough of a hint, that you will out why there's always a little boy drowning and smiling screaming Cassie's name.
