Awake

I really wanted to like this as it was the first book we chose for a book club I joined, but I am absolutely not the target audience. I didn't care for any of the characters and found any emotion superficial. The concept of the plot itself was interesting but I have a low tolerance for visualizations of children being harmed. I had to skim through a lot of these parts to get through to the end. As I said, I am not the target audience. These were characters I couldn't even begin to relate to and the writing style felt hurried, which I will attribute to being geared for a younger audience.
