Gone

by Lisa McMann

Simon Pulse | January 4, 2011 | Trade Paperback

Things should be great for Janie-she has graduated from high school and is spending her summer with Cabel, the guy she's totally in love with. But deep down she's panicking about how she's going to survive her future when getting sucked into other people's dreams is really starting to take its toll.

Things get even more complicated when she meets her father for the very first time-and he's in a coma. As Janie uncovers his secret past, she begins to realize that the choice thought she had has more dire consequences than she ever imagined.

    I Really liked how this book played out. I found it sad but great at the same time! I totally can't wait to see if the author (Lisa McMann) ends up making another one to the series! Really enjoyed the series. C:

    Not the Perfect Dream Life

    Sharpquilter

    7 months ago

    Janie is now finished high school and has some major decisions to make. Continue as she has, dreaming other peoples dreams which destroy her body, leave Cabel and live in isolation, and what about her mother. To help them both unwind from their work with the police, Cabel takes her to visit with his brother for a week. In the middle of the week, Carrie calls and leaves frantic messages for Janie that result in the two rushing back home to sort out whatever is happening.

    First, I want to say that I enjoyed the whole series. I liked the reader Ellen Grafton and would listen to more of her work. She made the characters come alive. Particularly liked her no-nonsense voicing of Captain Komisky, my favourite character in the series. What I didn't like as much is that Janie is so certain that it is Cabel or no one. That this is her one relationship and that if she cuts ties with him, she'll be alone for the rest of her life. Though, that does seem to be a very teen way of thinking.

    Sure, it's pretty far fetched that you can enter other people's dreams, but imagine the possibilities.... The whole series was fun to listen to and I would recommend it to teens and parents of teens as it does a good job of looking at some of the issues and decisions facing young adults.

    I listened to the unabridged version from Brilliance Audio, 4 hours 43 minutes. Read by Ellen Grafton.

    Sad to see this series go.

    I was sad to see this excellent series go. I really did enjoy reading the first two. This time however, this book focuses more on Janie and the devastating consequences it has to her health (mental and physical). Janie develops a lot here as a character, and it's really nice to see that she grows to be a very mature and strong woman.

    The storyline that surrounds Janie and her father was an interesting one, one that actually put me to tears. Yet I'm glad Janie went along with her choice. I rather wished there was more to Janie and her mother although not much really happened between them. They're still far apart and it looks like no closure was done between the two. I think there could have been more to close that loose end.

    The characters stayed the same, nothing much to them although I'm glad to see Cabel still ends up as boyfriend of the year in my opinion. I'm also glad to see that most of the loose ends have been tied up nicely without leaving any sort of unanswered questions behind. Fans who are expecting another mystery to be solved will be disappointed, there is no case to solve, but rather, it focuses more on Janie and her relationships and issues.

    It's a good closing novel, and only lets the reader wish there was more adventures with Janie and Cabel. However, all good things always have to come to an end. I'll definitely miss reading about them.

    Disappointing

    This book was a poor effort in comparion to the preious two in the series. It seemed as though the author was writing with no story in mind.
