Miley Cyrus to Star in Wake by Lisa McMann

From the back cover . . .

She is floating. Not the falling dream again, she thinks. She is sick to death of the falling dream.

The scene changes immediately. Now Janie is outside. It’s dark. She’s alone, behind a shed, but she can hear muffled voices. She’s never been alone before, and she doesn’t know how people can have dreams that they are not in. She is curious. She watches nervously, hoping this isn’t somebody’s nightmare about to explode through the wall of the shed, or from behind the bushes…

Wake is the story of Janie, who is drawn into other people's dreams. It has just been announced that this series (which includes both Fade and Gone) is being made into a movie which will star Miley Cyrus (http://popwatch.ew.com/2010/06/17/miley-cyrus-wake/)

Perfect 10s

A boy pushes someone off of a cliff (Freefall)
Valerie's boyfriend open fires on his school (Hate List)
Jessica learns that she is a vampire princess (Jessica's Guide to Dating on the Dark Side)
What do these books have in common?
They all received a perfect ten score. Kind of like getting a perfect 10 on Dancing With the Stars or at The Olympics. You can see the full list of 18 titles here . . .
