Wide Awake

Academy of the Fallen, Book 1

De: Daniele Lanzarotta

Narrado por: Sarah McKee

Kayla is a 16-year-old girl who was adopted when she was little. She lives a normal life, with great friends, loving adoptive parents, and well...a not-so-great boyfriend. But the reason why she was given up for adoption was far from any usual reason. She was meant to be kept away from the Academy and anything else related to the supernatural beings that could hurt her.

Unfortunately for Kayla, it was only a matter of time before she encountered the creatures from the Otherworld, and there is just no running away from the beings that she can now see. In trying to protect Kayla by keeping her away from the Academy, she may have just been put in even more danger.

Finished book in one day

Loved this book! Kept me entertained the whole time! I can't wait to start the next one!

Different

I really loved this book .. It is a little different than what I normally read, but I really liked it.. I recommend this book.

loved this audio

Wide Awake was really good I loved listening to it. Sarah Mckee is a really good narrator

Great First Book in a Series

I Loved this book.....

I get the feeling Kayla has a lot to learn about herself, and what she can do.

Can't wait to move on to book 2, and see where this new world takes her.

Good start to the series

Kayla started to see people who no one else could see but one other person. Hunter keeps trying to help her and yet she doesn’t want his help. Kayla is stubborn and doesn’t want to see these things or be different. As the book goes on Kayla starts to grow and change her views. She doesn’t know what her is or why she can see these people but Hunter is there trying to help her no matter what.

Good start

This was a good start the the series as Kayla learns who she is and what she can do.

Never want it to end!

First of all, I wanted to give a shout out to new Narrator of the book, Sarah McKee. For this being her first audible book, she did an amazing job of capturing Kayla's emotion. By the end of the story... she had me so sucked in, I was devastated when it ended. I hope that she continues the series.

Wide Awake was a wonderful book... I love the way the friendship between Hunter and Kayla builds though the entire book. All the twist and turns as she navigate through all the changes in her life kept me glued to the book. I completed the book in 3 hours... I think it might be a record for me. I could not put it down and could not wait to see what was going to happen on the next page.

I am looking forward to completing the trilogy!

So, get the next books done quickly please! I want more!

Great Series!

This is a great series to listen too. It kept me entertained and was a great way to escape reality.

want for me

wasn't for me due to too much realism
, but if that doesn't bother you, give it's try!

It’s a promising start

The narrator was okay I just wish she could portray all of the characters. There’s no male voice...if you don’t pay attention it can sound like Kayla is telling the story the entire time. She’s not bad but it would have helped to bring the story to another level.
The story was a bit slow, but that’s normal so that the author fills us in on all the other characters etc. The story is very interesting and I was shocked to find out what Kayla was. Looking forward to the next book.
