Wake (Watersong Novels) (edition 2012)

This is a young adult paranormal read. Wake is the first in a series which has a few secrets that are reveled throughout the book. Brings in legends along with Greek mythology. As with most young adult stories; does she pick the boy or not? ( )

Quite enjoyed this. Amanda Hocking has become a favorite of mine. Good for those wanting mythology based reads and some romance. ( )

I’ve been wanting to read something by Amanda Hocking for a while now and within the first month of 2013 I bought four of her books. I wasn’t sure where to start but I was in the mood for Wake. So I grabbed it off my shelf and read the while book in a day.

It’s not a very long book and because the story is so good I just didn’t want to stop reading. I enjoyed Wake so much. I’m not sure why I’m only giving it four stars because I can’t think of a single thing I disliked. I really, really liked it. I just didn’t love it and I wish I knew why that is.

Please pick up this book if you haven’t yet. I know I will be picking up the next book in this series, Lullaby. I will also be starting Switched, the first book in Hockings Trylle Trilogy very soon. ( )

I loved this book (Wake) and read it in one sitting. It ended too quick for me. I wanted to read more. There is a cliff-hanger at the end that has made me wish that winter of 2013 was tomorrow so I can keep on reading. (That's when the second book in the series comes out.) "Wake" leaves you wondering who you can confide in and what sacrifice really means. Love, death, craziness and the supernatural is very real for Gemma, a 16 yr old girl who now is forced to belive in amazing and evil girls because they are all she can turn to for answers and survival. I want to know what happens to her next and does she get a HEA? Amanda Hocking is a great story-teller and I will be looking into reading her other series. ( )
