When We Wake by Karen Healey
5.0
Where do I start? First of all, characters! So many unique characters and all with background and quirk. Each character to me seemed vastly different. Tumblr rages about the lack of differentiation and acceptance in books, well look no further because this book has lgbt characters a plenty and although not vast, a decent collection of race.
Now about plot, the idea of someone being frozen only to awake 100 years later? In my opinion? Captivating. At times while reading it felt so wrong and strange for simply everyone to have moved on and left Tegan behind. Yet thats life. When We Wake is amazing and I would highly recommend! However, this book would most likely suit 12-15 year olds about. My 50 year old father wouldnt be able to stand it and my 25 year old sister would probably find it distasteful. Books are all a matter of opinion though so who can say!
