(I have to say though...the main female character being pulled between two great male characters is driving me crazy! Bella in New Moon, Laurel in Wings, Aislinn in Melissa Marr's series...wow!)
I know, I can't choose between the two guys in there! But I have a feeling she'll end up with Tam, because he's a faerie too and she's going to have to go back sometime. But I still like David.
So I got 2 books from the library, and it seems they have prequels that the cover didn't tell about. :| And I'm waiting for my ARC of Catching Fire to come, so I have no books to read at the moment.

Well, from the back cover I didn't really want to read Wake, I mean, if she's going into dreams where people are having sex and stuff...not my kinda book.
I've heard from this book though that the writing is bad, but the story is good.

I've read both Wake and the sequel, Fade. It is a trilogy and I can't remember when the last book comes out. The style of the writing is different, much more dialogue based. I'd say it is more for high school aged YA readers because there are some "scary" and "sexual" situations but nothing that I thought was overly graphic, but some of the more violent scenes were high on the suspense/frightening levels. I enjoyed the book. It took me a little bit to get into it, but I thought it was pretty good. The next novel was really interesting as well. Here is an excerpt from Wake. Maybe it'll help you decide. I got a copy from the library since this isn't a series I would buy, but I did enjoy reading the first two books.

I'm rereading Little Women for the millionth time since I was five, while I'm waiting for a chance to go to the library.

The Animals Dialogues, or something like that. It's my summer reading book so it's not like I care about it. I'd much rather read Marlfox. :\
