The Gist
Working for the captain has changed a lot. Janie now has a full scholarship to college and a paycheck every time she completes a case. But now Janie has to take on a new and dangerous case. She has to take down asexual predator found among the teachers at her high school. When Janie and Cabel hear about the new case – and that Janie will probably have to be used as bait to lure the predator out of hiding – Cabel immediately objects. And Janie accepts. Now Janie must discover the predator among the teachers she thought she could trust and risk her well-being in the process. Meanwhile Cabel continues to firmly object to Janie being a part of the case at all. Janie continuously tells him that she can take care of herself. While Janie tries to juggle the case and her relationship with Cabel, she continues to find out more and more about herself as a dream catcher, and how that part of her life will effect her future.

I liked this one better than Wake. By a lot. Thankfully, this one actually had a plot. The characters were both better than Wake and worse. Sometimes they (mostly Cabel and Janie) could get pretty annoying, but most of the time they were loveable and even more sweet than in the first of the trilogy. I know that my gist was weird and kind of rambling, but the book was better than that. The plot had more substance. That’s why I found this book to be so much better than the previous. I need a book’s plot to be defined or I find it childish and sloppy. This wasn’t the case here. Janie had a mission to complete and she was determined to complete it. Simple enough but, in essence, good. Much better than the non-existent plot of Wake. Also, the characters were a high point in this book, too. They seemed like real people. They were normal people, which made them great characters. They brought life to the story. For some reason, they seemed even more believable in Fade. Finally, I found the writing style in Fade better than in Wake. In Wake, I would occasionally find myself confused as to what was happening in the story. Here though I can’t remember a time when I had to stop and rethink. Janie and Cabel were also really cute in their relationship. They weren’t too over-the-top gooey, gushy romancey. They were just right. It was really sweet. Another good thing: I found myself laughing at the sarcastic jokes and puns.  I love when a good book has a few hilarious one-liners. I’m always pleasantly surprised and break out in laughter randomly. Maybe that doesn’t define a good book, but right now I’m in a book slump (not reading any good books lately :(   ) so it’s good enough for me. Overall, it was better than Wake by a lot. So if you liked Wake, you’ll love Fade.
